Here are some tips on how to stay safe during this crazy week!
1. Utilize those blankets!!

This is very important, especially when you're going through a power outage, and you need something to keep the little warmth in your house or apartment until the power comes on. If you don't have any blankets, towels also help as well!
2. If you can, don't drive on the roads unless it is necessary

3. When you are going outside, do the penguin walk!

5. If you are going to warm yourself in your car, don't do it in an enclosed space
