- Residents who have the facilities are urged to remove vehicles from the roadway and park in their garage and/or driveway
- Do not place snow into the travel lane of the roadway when clearing your property

- Prepare for possible power loss: add warm clothes to emergency kit, check flashlight and radio batteries, charge mobile devices, fill car gas tank, etc...
- Only use generators in open areas away from windows and home to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning
- Bring pets/animals inside and move livestock to sheltered areas with non-frozen drinking water
