Hurricane Readiness
Before
the storm arrives, check to see that flashlights, emergency
generator, battery operated radios and other equipment are in
working order.
When the storm hits, turn off all appliances except for lights.
This reduces the chance of overloading circuits when power is
restored. If you are in the direct path of the storm, assume
you will be without power for some time. And of course, stay
away from any downed power lines. After the storm, crews will
work around the clock to restore power, but their first concern
is to restore service to emergency radios, hospitals, utilities,
and transportation systems. Call LEC immediately if you see
sparking power lines, and call if your house is the only one
on your block without power.
