Power outages can happen with little warning during storms, extreme heat/cold, or equipment failure. A little preparation goes a long way—have supplies ready, know how to use generators safely, and protect food and medications. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a silent killer during outages, so always place generators outdoors and install working CO alarms. Before an Outage: Prep Your Home & Supplies
