⚠️Stay safe, Dover! ❄️ High winds, freezing temperatures, and snow can move in fast. Are you and your family prepared?

❄️​Following guidance from the National Weather Service, here are four essential steps to stay ahead of the storm:

​🏠 Prepare Your Home & Vehicle: Insulate your pipes now to prevent freezing and keep your gas tank at least half full. Don't forget a car emergency kit with blankets, a flashlight, and extra water.

🧥 Dress Smart: If you must go outside, wear loose-fitting, lightweight, warm layers. Covering exposed skin is the best way to prevent frostbite.

📱 Stay Informed: Keep your phone charged and monitor local weather apps or a NOAA weather radio for the latest updates. Check in on your neighbors, especially the elderly.

🚗 Avoid Unnecessary Travel: The safest place to be during a winter storm is off the roads. If you have to drive, take it slow and leave plenty of space between vehicles.
