🚨 Severe Weather Possible 🚨
We've got some severe weather heading our way, and it's important to stay prepared and stay safe! Here are some important tips to get you ready:
🔋 Storm Preparedness
* Charge your devices in advance and have flashlights ready.
* Stock up on essentials like water, non-perishable food, and medication.
* Communicate your plans with your family members.
âš¡ Stay Away from Downed Power Lines
* Never approach or touch downed power lines - they can still be live and dangerous
* Report any downed lines by calling our office at 812-384-4446 or 9-1-1 for emergencies.
🌊 Avoid Flooded Areas
* Do NOT drive through flooded roads, no matter how shallow the water looks. It only takes a small amount of water to move your vehicle or hide dangerous hazards.
* Stay away from rivers, creeks, and streams as they can rise quickly.
📱 If you need to report a power outage, you can use our mobile app (UDWI REMC in the App Store or Google Play Store) or text/call the office at 812-384-4446.
Stay safe, stay alert! UDWI REMC is prepared and ready to weather the storm together!
