Tips for Preparing for Winter Weather
Winter storms are uncommon in Texas, so it’s crucial to take steps to stay safe and prepared. Here are some recommendations to help you weather the storm:
Protect Your Home:
Pipes: Insulate exposed pipes or let faucets drip to prevent freezing.
Heating: Ensure your heating system is functioning and have extra blankets on hand.
Windows and Doors: Use weather stripping or towels to block drafts and retain heat.
Stay Safe on the Roads:
Avoid driving unless absolutely necessary. Icy roads can be treacherous, especially for those unfamiliar with winter driving.
If you must travel, reduce your speed, keep a safe distance from other vehicles, and pack an emergency kit with blankets, water, and snacks.
Prepare for Power Outages:
Charge all devices in advance and have extra batteries for flashlights.
Keep a supply of non-perishable food and bottled water in case of prolonged outages.
Have a backup heat source, like a portable heater, but ensure proper ventilation to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
