From Starkville Fire Department:

Now is the time to start preparing. Don’t wait till last minute.

1. Prepare for Power Outages
• Charge phones, battery packs, and medical devices.
• Have flashlights (not just candles), extra batteries, and a battery-powered radio.
• If you use a generator, never run it indoors or in a garage.
2. Stock Essential Supplies
• At least 3 days of food and water per person (non-perishable, easy to prepare).
• Medications, first-aid kit, baby or pet supplies if needed.
• Extra blankets, warm clothing, hats, and gloves.
3. Protect Your Home & Pipes
• Let faucets drip slightly to prevent frozen pipes.
• Open cabinet doors under sinks to allow warm air in.
• Know how to shut off your main water valve in case a pipe bursts.
4. Prepare Your Vehicle
• Fill up your gas tank before the storm hits.
• Keep an emergency kit in your car: blankets, flashlight, ice scraper, jumper cables, food, and water.
• Avoid travel during ice storms—ice is far more dangerous than snow.
5. Stay Informed & Plan Ahead
• Monitor weather alerts and local emergency updates.
• Have a family communication plan if power or cell service goes down.
• Check on elderly neighbors or those who may need help—safely.il
