📻 Los radios de baterías o manivela, son el mejor instrumento para mantenernos informados durante o luego de un evento atmosférico. Cuando no hay energía eléctrica o señal, quedamos aislados de información importante. Las ondas de radio se mantienen estables y activas para proveernos información actualizada y alertas de emergencia. También recuerde incluir baterías en su kit de suministros, más información: ready.gov/es/kit
