Prepare for Power Outages
Whipping wind and heavy ice and snow can take out power.
Before An Outage
If you know a power outage is possible due to upcoming bad weather, it's a good idea to:
Charge cellphones and battery-powered devices in advance.
Purchase ice, or freeze water-filled plastic containers to help keep food cold during a temporary power outage.
Learn about the emergency plans that have been established in your area by visiting your state’s or local website. Know how to locate the closest cooling and warming shelters.
During An Outage
If you lose power:
Only run generators outdoors, at least 20 feet from windows, doors, and attached garages.
Use flashlights instead of candles for emergency lighting to avoid fire risk.
Don't keep the car running near your home. Many people use their cars to recharge devices. That makes sense! You just want to do it outside of garages or partially enclosed spaces, and not too close to your home. This will keep you safe from carbon monoxide poisoning.
Never use the oven or burn charcoal as a source of heat indoors. If your power is out for a long time and you can't keep warm, plan to go somewhere that has heat.
