Answer:
Prepare and/or check your cyclone plan and emergency kit
A plan is vital because when a cyclone happens, there won't be time to think. So everyone in the household needs to know what to do.
You will have a better chance of surviving if everyone in the family agrees on a plan before cyclone season.
Make sure you have a battery-powered radio as part of your emergency kit, in case of power failure and mobile networks going down.
If your home is in a low-lying area, decide where will you and your family will go in case of storm surge.
Ask your local council if your home is built to cyclone standards.
Are you adequately insured? Make sure it covers you for storm surge, flooding and cyclone damage, including clean-up and debris removal.
Check your roof and walls and repair any loose tiles, eaves or roof screws.
Ensure windows are fitted with shutters or metal screens and that shutters and locks are working.
Trim any branches and treetops hanging over your house and clear gutters of leaves and debris.
Secure boats, caravans, trailers, garden sheds, rainwater tanks, LPG bottles and solar panels.
Make sure your household is familiar with the Standard Emergency Warning Signal (SEWS), which is generally broadcast when a cyclone is 12 hours or less away.
Decide how you will look after your pets and animals and what you will do if you have to leave them behind.
They're generally not allowed to go with you to a temporary evacuation shelter so you'll need to decide where they'll shelter during the cyclone.
Think about what items your pets may need and include them in your emergency kit.
If you hear either a watch or a warning, you should:
Stay tuned to your local ABC Radio station on a battery-powered radio and check the ABC Emergency Twitter and Facebook pages regularly for instructions and updates on the cyclone as its path can change quickly.
Familiarise yourself with some of the facts behind tropical cyclones through the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM).
Check that your emergency survival kit is complete and you have it on hand.
Ensure you have at least 3 litres of water per person per day for at least 3 days.
Let neighbours know a cyclone watch/warning has been issued.
Clear your property of all loose items and bring outdoor furniture, children's toys and gardening equipment inside or under cover.
Secure boats. Move vehicles/bicycles under cover.
Fill buckets and bath with water (in case your water supply gets cut off). Make sure you have enough water purification tablets.
If your windows are fitted with shutters, make sure they are closed securely. If not, tape your windows in a criss-crossing fashion using strong packing tape (this will hold broken glass in place).
Bring children and pets indoors and remain inside until told otherwise.
If you or a family member has a disability you may be more susceptible to the impacts of a cyclone.
When a cyclone warning is issued consider relocating with your emergency kit and anything you need to manage your health or disability.
Let friends and family know where you are
