Winter storms increase risk of car accidents, hypothermia, frostbite, carbon monoxide poisoning, & heart attacks from overexertion.

Cold Weather Safety Experts at FEMA, Dept of Homeland Security have offered the following winter weather safety tips:

Blizzards and winter storms may bring extreme cold, freezing rain, snow, ice, and high winds.

A winter storm can:

  • Last a few hours or several days;
  • Knock out heat, power, and communication services; and
  • Place older adults, young children, and sick individuals at greater risk.

IF YOU ARE UNDER A WINTER STORM WARNING, FIND SHELTER RIGHT AWAY

  • Stay off roads.
  • Stay indoors and dress warmly.
  • Prepare for power outages.
  • Use generators outside only and away from windows.
  • Listen for emergency information and alerts.
  • Look for signs of hypothermia and frostbite.
  • Check on neighbors.

No matter where you live, it is always a good idea to keep a Winter Storm Safety Kit in every vehicle! Always be prepared with supplies in home and car….BEFORE you need them!

Stay Warm with Home Heating Safety

According to the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA), half of all home heating fires occur during the winter months of December, January and February. Now is the time to make sure your home heating devices are safe, before the weather turns bitter cold.

Follow these USFA winter weather safety tips to maintain a fire-safe home this winter:
• Keep anything that can burn at least three (3) feet from all heat sources including fireplaces, wood stoves, radiators, space heaters or candles.
• Never use an oven to heat your home.
• Maintain heating equipment and chimneys by having them cleaned and inspected annually by a qualified professional.

As always, be sure your home and vehicle safety and first aid kits are up to date.

 

U.S. Fire Administration safety professionals also remind us to test carbon monoxide detectors monthly.

What is carbon monoxide?

Carbon monoxide, also known as CO, is called the “Invisible Killer” because it is a colorless, odorless, poisonous gas. More than 150 people in the United States die every year from accidental non fire-related CO poisoning associated with consumer products, including generators. Other products include faulty, improperly-used or incorrectly-vented fuel-burning appliances such as furnaces, stoves, water heaters and fireplaces. Source: Consumer Product Safety Commission
