⚠️❄️ ICE STORM UPDATE – PLEASE PREPARE ❄️⚠️
Updated forecast models indicate our area may experience a severe ice storm beginning late Saturday and continuing through Sunday.
🌧️➡️❄️ Freezing rain and sleet are expected, with the potential for significant ice accumulation. This may lead to prolonged power outages from downed trees and power lines 🌲⚡, as well as dangerous or impassable road conditions 🚧.
🚨 Emergency Management strongly recommends residents be prepared to shelter in place for several days.
🧰 Prepare now with essential supplies:
• 🍽️ Food & 💧 water
• 🔋 Batteries & power banks
• ⛽ Fuel
• 🧣 Blankets & warm clothing
• 🔦 Flashlights or lanterns
• 🔥 Alternate heat safety — ensure working CO₂ monitors if using propane
✔️ If the storm impacts are less than expected, no harm done by being prepared.
⚠️ If it unfolds as forecasted, preparation will be critical.
🥶 Extended forecasts show overnight temperatures in the teens for much of the following week, which may slow ice melt and recovery efforts.
🙏 Please stay safe, prepare now, and take this storm seriously.
