Strong storms and extreme heat may lead to power outages. Avoid travel but if you must drive, use headlights and wipers and never drive through flooded or debris-covered roads. If you lose power, report it to your electric provider and stay away from downed power lines.

Before you head to the pool, lake, or river, take a moment to review these water safety tips. Stay hydrated, swim with others, and head indoors or into a hard-topped vehicle if thunderstorms move into the area. Stay safe and enjoy your holiday weekend!

As you prepare for Fourth of July celebrations, make sure your pets are, too. High temperatures and fireworks can both create dangerous situations for animals. A little planning goes a long way in keeping every member of your family safe this holiday weekend!

Take a moment to check on a neighbor, friend, or loved one as we face rising heat and the potential for storms. A simple check-in can make all the difference. Stay hydrated. Stay informed. Look out for one another. ❤️
