J U N E 2 0 2 6 | W E S T PA L M B E A C H 15 • Move patio furniture and outdoor items indoors, fasten doors and windows, and cover valuables and furniture with plastic and move away from windows. • Turn off and unplug unnecessary electronics, including pool equipment, and set your refrigerator and freezer to their coldest settings to keep food fresh longer during an outage. • DO NOT attempt to trim trees or vegetation near overhead power lines yourself – only hire qualified professionals to trim trees and other vegetation near power lines. Visit FPL.com/ trees for more information on our tree trimming policies. • Look up and note the location of power lines before you begin working on a ladder. Be sure that any ladders or scaffolds are far enough away so that you – and the ends of the tools you're using – don't come within 10 feet of power lines. WHAT ARE IMPORTANT SAFETY STEPS AFTER A HURRICANE? • If you're planning to use a portable generator, read and follow all the manufacturer’s instructions. Be sure to set it up outside – not in your home or garage – and connect appliances directly to it. Do not wire your generator directly to your home’s breaker or fuse box, as the power you generate may flow back into power lines and cause injuries. • Stay far away from and do not touch any downed power lines or flooded and debris-laden areas that may be hiding downed power lines.
