Set the alarm for 12:46 a.m.

Web alarm clock for 12:46 a.m.

You are setting the 12:46 am alarm now so you can cover the drying copra before the night rain reaches it. That leaves enough time to place a tarpaulin, ropes, and a flashlight by the door, ready for a quick walk to the drying area. With 1:00 am close, the alarm marks the moment to check the sky and protect the copra before the first drops fall.

Your copra run depends on hearing the alert, so check where the browser’s sound is going before you settle down. Wireless or wired headphones can quietly take over the audio, leaving the room silent even when the alarm activates. Play a brief test sound, disconnect headphones you will not wear, and keep the volume audible. The alarm will not warn you about the copra if the page is closed or the phone falls asleep, so leave the page open and keep the phone awake until 12:46 am.

A dark path to the copra can make even a prepared trip slower at this hour. Set a charged flashlight beside the tarpaulin instead of relying on the phone screen, and switch on an outdoor light beforehand if it will not disturb anyone nearby. Aim the light downward while securing the cover; you will see ropes and uneven ground clearly without shining it toward neighbouring homes during the night.
