WOOD COUNTY BULLETIN NR 12.31 DATE: July 29, 2012
SUBJECT: HAVE YOU RESTOCKED YOUR SUPPLIES?
Did you use most of your emergency supplies on the event of June 29th? You may say that you have time to get everything ready before the next one, and you may be right. On the other hand the next one might happen tomorrow.
You need to start getting ready for the next one so you won't be shorthanded. Was there something that you needed, but didn't have when you needed it.
At some meetings this past week there were reports that people didn't have a battery powered broadcast radio to hear where help may have been available. If you had a battery powered radio, did you have batteries for it?
Some of the emergency officials talked about broadcasting information every four hours, so those with a broadcast radio could get the information. There is a lot of planning for the next severe event. You need to do the same.
