Be prepared!

🧊 ICE STORM POSSIBLE — PREPARE NOW 🧊

We are monitoring the potential for up to one-half inch of ice accumulation in our area this weekend. Ice impacts can be significant and dangerous, even without heavy snow.

🚗 TRAVEL ON ICE IS NOT SAFE
• Ice-covered roads are not drivable, even with 4WD or AWD
• Bridges, overpasses, and shaded areas freeze first
• Emergency response times may be delayed
• If ice develops, stay off the roads if at all possible

🌳 TREES & POWERLINES
• Ice adds extreme weight to trees and limbs
• Falling limbs can block roads and damage homes and vehicles
• Ice on powerlines can cause widespread power outages, possibly lasting several days

🔌 POWER OUTAGE PREPARATION
• Charge phones, medical devices, and battery packs
• Have flashlights and extra batteries ready
• Use generators safely — never indoors or in garages
• Limit opening refrigerators/freezers if power is lost

🏠 COLD WEATHER PREP
• Protect pipes by dripping faucets and opening cabinet doors
• Bring pets indoors
• Check on elderly neighbors and those with medical needs

🥫 PREPARE FOR SEVERAL DAYS
• Have food and drinking water for multiple days
• Keep needed medications on hand
• Gather blankets, warm clothing, and bedding
• Plan to stay home if roads become impassable

⚠️ STAY INFORMED
Forecast details may change. We will continue to monitor conditions and share updates as they become available. Please rely on official sources for accurate information.

✔️ Preparing now helps keep you safe and allows emergency responders to focus on critical calls.

No matter how long someone has been caring for a person who is declining and dying, when that last breath is taken, it can feel as though they had absolutely no idea it was coming. You can prepare for months, even years. You can understand the prognosis, witness the changes, and live with anticipatory grief from the moment of diagnosis or decline. And still, when death arrives, the wind is often knocked out of you in the most profound and disorienting way. Knowing it was coming does not soften the moment it actually happens.

This is why comments like, “Weren’t you prepared for this?” or “You knew this was coming,” can be deeply hurtful. They can feel dismissive, even insulting, as though preparation somehow cancels out shock, pain, or the right to grieve. As if having time to anticipate death means you are not entitled to feel the impact of it. That isn’t kind, and it isn’t fair. We do not get to determine how someone experiences loss, whether they had years to prepare or no warning at all.

What we say to someone who is grieving often stays with them far longer than we realize. Support isn’t about having the right words; it’s about showing up with presence and compassion. This moment isn’t about us, it’s about them. The kindest thing we can do is offer a safe place where their feelings are allowed, validated, and held. Because no matter how long you have been preparing for someone to take their last breath, when it happens, it truly feels as though you had no idea it was coming.
