Strong winds typically occur in the summer and fall months when thunderstorms are most likely to occur. Generally, thunderstorms and strong winds go hand in hand. If you are expecting a strong thunderstorm to head your way, here are some tips to prepare before it hits:

• Trim tree branches away from your house and power lines.
• Secure loose gutters and shutters.
• Identify an interior room of your house, such as a basement or interior bathroom, that you can take shelter in during high wind warnings.
• Update your emergency kit and be sure to include enough food and water to last for 3 days for each person in your home.
• Make a list of items outside your home you will need to tie down or put away so that they don't blow away or fly through a window.
