Household emergency planning guides
Build a winter kit for home, vehicle, and evacuation with water, familiar food, medication, warm layers, light, communication, safe heat limits, and maintenance.

Understand winter storm watches, warnings, and advisories, why local criteria vary, where to read the full alert, and which household actions belong at each stage.
