Stay safe and help look out for others in your community during this #PolarVortex. 🏘️
Frostbite to exposed skin & hypothermia are the greatest threats.
Check local news for locations of warming centers and follow local officials for safety information.

To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning:
❌ Only use generators and grills outdoors, away from windows
❌ Never heat your home with a gas stove or oven
❌ Ensure external heating and appliance exhaust vents are unblocked and free from snow drifts

Every year, nearly half a million people are injured in car accidents that occur on wet, snowy or icy roads. When it comes to winter driving, getting informed and changing the way you drive will help you get to your destination safely! weather.gov pic.twitter.com/IVZh1Ksrpu

As the #PolarVortex continues, you may lose power. If you're using a portable generator, make sure your carbon monoxide alarms are working and that the generator is at least 20ft away from your home. Never run a generator in your garage or basement. pic.twitter.com/ynJ6HUib78

Use caution when taking your pets outdoors! Ice-melting chemicals like anti-freeze can cause irritation or be deadly. Make sure you wipe pet’s 🐾 and belly after each trip outside.

If you need to use a generator to power your home, you need this safety information. If used improperly, generators can produce deadly carbon monoxide inside your home. #WinterFireSafety #PolarVortex2019 pic.twitter.com/zVncwkBKqK

It's a good day to STAY INSIDE given the extreme cold. But if you must venture out, hope for the best but prepare for the worst. Driving? What if your car stalls or you're involved in an accident? pic.twitter.com/uR7ttvG1Ku

Check on older family + friends + neighbors—especially those who live alone—to ensure their homes are heated during the #PolarVortex. #Hypothermia can happen indoors, too.

Check on neighbors--especially those who are elderly, live alone, or rely on medical equipment--in #winterwx. Stop by to ask if they have supplies, to check that the home is heated, & to look for signs of #hypothermia: ow.ly/aGqM30nuMjf #PrepYourHealth #TuesdayThoughts pic.twitter.com/oaTNGQDmlB
