Turn off electronic appliances that were on before power was lost. If you have to use any electrical appliance during a storm, always dry your hands before touching the electrical appliances. When using an electrical appliance, make sure no part of it comes into contact with water and if it does happen, switch off and dry the appliance. Never use water on an electrical fire. Use a multipurpose fire extinguisher instead. *OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENT SAFETY TIPS* Call the ZETDC National contact centre on 704 to report fallen power lines. All fallen power lines should be treated as live and must not be tampered with during a rainstorm. Waterbodies in contact with fallen power lines may be energized and thus should be avoided to prevent electrocution. Never mow wet grass with an electric mower. Do not stand under trees or electrical power lines during the rain. If fallen lines come into contact with your vehicle, remain inside your vehicle and contact 704 for immediate help. Do not drive over fallen power lines. Use socket outlet covers for all outdoor sockets. Please make sure all cables are well insulated and avoid using loosely connected or frayed cables. While it’s raining, do not touch any electrical connections barefoot. > DO NOT TOUCH, DO NOT APPROACH, DO NOT CLIMB!!! The Meteorological Services Department (MSD) has said as of Thursday evening, Moderate Tropical Storm Freddy was in the Mozambique channel headed West-South-West, slowly towards the south-eastern parts of Mozambique. The Met Department said landfall is expected overnight [03:00 am Friday, 24 February 2023] in the southern parts of Mozambique, with its cloud bands spreading to cover a radius of 500km beyond the eye of the storm. _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
