Be prepared!
Did you know that lightning strikes the United States about 25 million times a year? Thunderstorms are common in Burley and SERVPRO® of Wood River Valley has been responding to storm damage emergencies for years, and we offer these important thunderstorm preparation tips from the Federal Emergency Management Agency:
- Know your area’s risk for thunderstorms
- Create an emergency plan so that you and your family know what to do, where to go, and what you will need to protect yourselves from the effects of a thunderstorm during the COVID-19 pandemic
- Sign up for your community’s warning system. The Emergency Alert System and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Weather Radio also provide emergency alerts. Sign up for email updates and follow the latest guidelines about coronavirus from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and your local authorities to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
- Identify nearby, sturdy buildings close to where you live, work, study, and play
- Cut down or trim trees that may be in danger of falling on your home
