Solutions
How does one conquer these typhoons?
Have a preparedness plan. This is to ensure that you know what steps you should take in case of emergency. Charge your devices, and have a preparedness kit.
Preparedness won't come in handy if you don't know what's going on around you. Nowadays, you can stay updated by listening to radio, watching TV, and reading articles from trusted news sources online.
During a typhoon, seek a safe place to evacuate. Preferrably, underground. Listen for updates in the radio, and wait for updates on when you can safely go out.
