Flash Flooding From Hurricane Damages Wailuku Business?
8/2/2022 (Permalink)
Aloha! When your Wailuku commercial business floods during a storm, our teams in Hawaii and Maui are Here to Help. ® We have over twenty years of experience restoring businesses damaged by flooding. Here are some tips from the Maui County website for staying safe during a flash flood or hurricane:
- Flash flooding may still occur even when sunny due to rain clouds higher up in the mountains
- Newer editions of guidebooks have many safety messages. Read and abide by them.
- River rocks can be very slippery. Stay away from cliff edges. Be aware of falling rocks.
- Better to stay put than risk hiking in darkness
- Hawaii’s streams may be contaminated with leptospirosis
When a hurricane or tropical storm warning is issued:
- Follow instructions issued by civil defense
- Leave immediately if ordered to do so
- Complete preparation activities, such as boarding up windows and storing loose objects
- Wedge sliding glass doors to prevent their lifting from their tracks
- Turn up your refrigerator to maximum cold and don’t open it unless necessary
- Evacuate areas that might be affected by storm surge flooding
- If evacuating, leave early and leave food and water for pets (shelters will not take them)
- Notify neighbors and a family member outside of the warned area of your evacuation plans
- Use the phone only for emergencies
