Be prepared for winter weather!

We have already begun to see the snow fall this fall/winter. Whether you enjoy seeing the white landscape or not, it is best to be prepared for winter storms. A winter storm can last a few hours or several days, even knocking out power.

PREPARE

• Create an emergency supply kit for your car and home.
• Sign up for your community’s warning system.
• Prepare home to keep pipes from freezing.
• Test smoke alarms and carbon monoxide.

DURING

• Stay off roads.
• Stay indoors.
• Listen for emergency alerts and information.
• Check on neighbors.
