Saudel is affecting Pilipinas per pagasa. Secure your home, prepare a go-bag, and follow your LGU's evacuation orders rather than waiting to judge conditions yourself. A typhoon is approaching parts of the country, bringing potential heavy rains and strong winds. It is important to stay informed and prepare your household early to keep your family safe.
Pack non-perishable food, potable water for at least three days, a first-aid kit, flashlight, extra batteries, important documents in a waterproof container, essential medicines, and fully charged power banks for your mobile phones.
The best time to evacuate is early, before heavy rains and strong winds begin or when local authorities issue an evacuation order. Waiting until conditions worsen makes travel dangerous and rescue efforts difficult.
Do not use electrical appliances immediately if they got wet or if your home experienced flooding. Have a qualified electrician check your wiring and outlets first to prevent electric shocks and fire hazards.
Boil your drinking water for a rolling boil of at least one minute to kill harmful bacteria. Alternatively, use approved water purification tablets or drink commercially bottled water if available.
Move immediately to the upper floors or the roof if necessary. Turn off the main electrical switch before water reaches outlet levels, and call local emergency services for rescue assistance.
Rely only on official weather updates and announcements from PAGASA, NDRRMC, and your local government unit. Avoid sharing unverified information from social media to prevent panic.
