Be careful when cleaning up after a hurricane. Cleanup slowly, taking lots of breaks to avoid straining your body. Be very careful with chainsaws and other power tools. Make sure to stay safe in the heat by staying hydrated, taking breaks in the shade or AC.

Tenga cuidado al limpiar después de un huracán. Limpie lentamente, tome descansos para evitar tensar su cuerpo y manténgase hidratado. Tenga mucho cuidado con las motosierras. weather.gov/safety/hurrica…

Even after the storm passes, power outages have their own set of hazards. Be especially careful with generators — never use them inside or in garages to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. Use flashlights, not candles, to avoid risk of fire. weather.gov/safety/hurrica…

Incluso después de que pase la tormenta, los cortes de energía tienen sus propios peligros. Tenga especial cuidado con los generadores: nunca los use adentro o en garajes para evitar el envenenamiento por monóxido de carbono y utilice linternas. weather.gov/safety/hurrica…

Los peligros de los huracanes permanecen después de que los cielos se tornan azules. Tenga cuidado con las líneas eléctricas caídas y los edificios dañados. Evite las inundaciones, ya que pueden ocultar una variedad de peligros. weather.gov/safety/hurrica…

Hurricane dangers remain ever after the skies turn blue. Watch out for downed power lines and damaged buildings. Avoid floodwaters as they can hide a variety of dangers, and never drive through them, as it doesn’t take much to sweep your car away.
