| Your preparation makes a huge difference in keeping everyone safe.
🚨 PREPAREDNESS – WHAT YOU SHOULD DO✅ Stay off the roads unless absolutely necessary to allow emergency vehicles safe access.✅ Check and clear furnace and heating vents to prevent carbon monoxide buildup.✅ Ensure fire hydrants near your home are clear of snow if you can safely do so.✅ Keep emergency supplies ready — flashlights, batteries, medications, blankets, and extra food and water.✅ Charge phones and backup power sources ahead of the storm.✅ Test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.✅ Park vehicles off roadways when possible to allow snow plows and emergency responders through.
🚫 WHAT NOT TO DO❌ Do not use grills, ovens, or generators indoors or in attached garages — this creates deadly carbon monoxide.❌ Do not overload electrical outlets with heaters or extension cords.❌ Do not block hydrants, fire lanes, or access points with snow piles or parked vehicles.❌ Do not attempt to drive through deep snow or around barricades.❌ Do not ignore downed power lines — always assume they are live and stay far away.
