Cyclone Preparation Checklist

Summary

Depending on its location and strength, a tropical cyclone is referred to by names such as hurricane, typhoon, tropical storm, cyclonic storm, tropical depression, and simply cyclone.^[1]

Emergency Preparedness

Anyone possibly in the path of a major storm of any kind should be prepared to sustain themselves for approximately 72 hours.

Prepare an Emergency Kit

An emergency preparedness kit should include:

• water (2-4 litres per person)
• canned goods
• can opener
• First Aid kit
• batteries
• flashlight
• medication
• personal documentation
• battery-operated radio
• blankets
• toilet paper
• cash in small bills and coins
• spare house and car keys

Leave your emergency kit by the door in case you need to “grab it and go”.

Get to Higher Ground

When a hurricane or powerful storm is hitting, people in low-lying coastal areas should stay over with family or friends who live on higher grounds. It'sSecond also important to keep away from the water.
