STRONG tents and temporary roofs are not designed to withstand strong tropical storm or typhoon-force winds. Residents are strongly urged to prepare now.
* Plan to dismantle STRONG tents before conditions worsen and once shelters open
* Follow the official dismantling guide (included in kits or at bit.ly/strongtentmanual)
* Additional guidance will be released soon
* Residents who identified as elderly, disabled, or with medical needs will be contacted for assistance
* Secure belongings early; bring only essential items to shelters
* Those with temporary roof repairs should relocate to a shelter when available
Shelter information will be announced by Friday, or sooner if needed.
