Winter Storm Preparedness and How to Handle a Power Outage

Turn on faucets to a trickle to prevent pipes from freezing
Avoid driving in sleet, freezing rain or drizzle, snow, or dense fog. If you must travel, keep a disaster supply kit in your vehicles. Include: first aid kit, road flares, jumper cables, rain ponchos, flashlight (and extra batteries), rags, duct tape, baby wipes, drinking water & non-perishable foods, multipurpose tool, ice scraper, blankets and/or warm clothing. If you have limited space, pare it down to just the basics (first aid kit, flashlight, multipurpose tool, jumper cables, road flare, bottled water, blankets)
Keep a stock of non-perishable foods
Have fresh batteries on hand for radios & flashlights

Keep all doors to outside shut, use towels to blocks drafts coming from cracks/windows
Check your breaker to make sure you have not blown a circuit
Unplug electronics and appliances that use electric motors to prevent damaging the appliances & overloading circuits when power is restored
Keep freezers & refrigerators closed
Use generators OUTDOORS & away from windows
Do not use a gas stove, as this could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning
Have alternate plans for refrigerating medical supplies or medicines such as an ice filled cooler or place outdoors or in a cold (40 degree) garage.
