Dos:

• Loose things outside the house should be tied or moved indoors.
• Seal important documents and jewellery in a plastic bag.
• Regularly inspect battery operated as well as reserve power systems.
• Pay attention to the official instructions on the television and radio.
• If you do not live in a mud house/hut, choose a part of the house as an emergency shelter and practice how members of the house will use the space during the cyclone.
• Keep an emergency kit ready.
• Stay away from windows. Close some windows and keep some windows open so that pressure is maintained.
• Stay at the centre of the room. Stay away from corners as debris often accumulates in the corners.
• Hide under strong furniture such as stool or heavy table or desk and hold it tight.
• Use your hands to protect your head and neck.
• Avoid large roof spaces, such as auditoriums and shopping malls.
• If you find an open space and there is enough time, find right shelter in the nearest pit or pasture.
• Relocate to a pre-determined or administration-determined location.
• Disconnect the power supply of all non-emergency equipment and tools.
• Store drinking water in a clean place (fill jugs, bottles, etc).
• Help people trapped or injured. Provide first aid as needed.
• Check for air leaks. If you smell gas or hear a leaking sound, immediately open the windows and exit the building. If possible, turn off the gas valve and report to gas company.
• Check for damage to electrical equipment. If you notice sparks, exposed wires or smell of runner, disconnect the main power supply and call the electrician.
• Help those in need of special help like children, physically challenged, elderly and neigbours.
