Severe lightening and storm on the horizon.

As we finally say good-bye to windy March – and boy was it a dozy – we can now look forward to April. But with April comes rain and storms. With the temperatures steadily rising the chance of a freeze is highly unlikely but possible. Spring storm will at most come out of nowhere so being prepared is key to spring storms. Local weather experts are predicting a possible severe weather event over the next 47 hours. Heavy rain will move in mid-day with severe threats moving in on Wednesday. Have a plan in place and be ready to take action.

• Design a safe room – basement – storm cellar or the lowest level of your home.
• Secure or store outdoor items

• Flashlights and batteries are essential in the event of a power outage.
• Charge your cell phone and make sure your car is full of gas.
• Keep important insurance information handy in case you need it.
