Our South Eugene and Florence team has been responding to windstorm damage emergencies for many years. Wolf Creek residents rely on our team of trained and certified technicians to restore storm damage quickly and efficiently. Here are some tips from the Oregon Health Authority for things you can do before a windstorm happens:
- Contact your local emergency management office or the Portland-based National Weather Service office to find out what types of storms are most likely to occur in your community
- Assemble an emergency kit and make a family communication plan
- If you have a home generator, make sure you know how to use it safely. Follow all instructions and contact the vendor, if necessary. Improper use of a generator can cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
- Find out who in your area might need special assistance, such as the elderly, disabled, and non-English-speaking neighbors
- Check with your veterinarian for animal care instructions in an emergency situation
- If you live on a coastal or inland shoreline, be familiar with evacuation routes
- Know what emergency plans are in place at your workplace, school, and daycare center
- Conduct a home safety evaluation to find out which nearby trees could fall in a windstorm
- If you have an electric garage door opener, locate the manual override
