🚨HOW TO PREPARE FOR OUR UPCOMING STORM🚨
As we prepare for the potential impacts of the upcoming winter storm, we encourage community members to take steps now to stay safe and informed. Continue to monitor local weather forecasts and official alerts for the latest information. If travel is necessary, plan ahead, allow extra time, reduce speed, and use caution on bridges and untreated roadways.
🏠 At home, ensure heating systems are working properly and that you have adequate supplies, including food, water, medications, flashlights, and extra batteries. Secure outdoor items that could be affected by strong winds or ice accumulation. Keep mobile devices charged and consider having a backup power source available.
🚘 Vehicle preparedness is also important. Keep fuel tanks at least half full and carry an emergency kit with blankets, a phone charger, and essential items. If possible, avoid unnecessary travel during periods of hazardous weather.
👗 Dress appropriately for cold conditions by wearing warm layers and protecting exposed skin. Check on elderly neighbors, family members, and anyone who may need additional assistance during severe weather.
Please continue to follow official communication channels for updates as conditions change. Taking simple precautions now can help keep everyone safe during the storm.
