• Tape windows from the inside with a large "X" to minimize glass shattering. Taping of windows will not prevent them from breaking but it will lessen the hazard of flying glass. If windows have not been boarded or taped, attach a cloth over the inside of the windows to protect from glass shattering. Draw curtains and binds for added protection. • Wedge sliding glass doors with a stick or broom handle to prevent them from being lifted from their tracks or from being ripped loose by the wind. • Unplug all unnecessary appliances. • Turn refrigerator and freezer to the coldest setting. Freeze water. Do not open unless necessary to keep food cold longer. • If you decide to evacuate, shut off utilities. • Package your valuables such as jewelry, titles, deeds, insurance papers, licenses, stocks, bonds, inventory, etc. for safe keeping in waterproof bags or containers. Take those valuables with you when you evacuate. III �l f) IIII t :uA� � ��,�u��5 IIIA � � t',�u Ik��J C � � 1iii IIIA III e te y� � t,�u iir reu III IIIIIbeIII � � reu t ii e coini�Jibons wrrhle.
