Do you have a 72-hour plan?

In the event of a severe outage, you should be prepared to take care of yourself for a minimum of 72 Hours.

1. Put together an emergency kit that includes a flashlight, extra batteries, a first aid kit, water, and food in the event of an outage.

2. If you already have a kit, check the “best before dates” on any food items in the mix, restock any items that you may have used and ensure batteries are working.

3. Keep your smartphone charged, especially if the weather calls for a potential storm.

4. Consider backup power alternatives such as a GenerLink.
