The library may be closed due to weather conditions

Caught off-guard by a winter storm? No worries! Here’s a quick guide for those who aren’t used to harsh winter conditions. Let's keep you safe and warm!

Pay attention to local storm warning.

Guidelines for staying safe.

When travel is restricted to emergencies only

Don't travel.

Wind chill is real!

Can cause hypothermia
Bundle up and stay home.

Stay Indoors

Limit your exposure to the cold. Stay inside unless absolutely necessary.

Other things you can do:

In case of power outage:

Use flashlights instead of candles to prevent fire hazards. Keep your phone charged and have a battery-powered radio handy for updates.

Close Off Unused Rooms

To conserve heat, shut doors to unused rooms and stuff towels or rags in cracks under doors.

Layer Up

Wear several layers of loose-fitting, lightweight clothing instead of one layer of heavy clothing. Don’t forget your hat and gloves!

Keep Dry

Stay as dry as possible. Wet clothing loses insulation, causing the body to lose heat more rapidly.

Use Curtains Wisely

Open curtains during the day to let sunlight in and close them at night to retain heat.

Exercise Caution with Heating

If using alternative heating sources like a fireplace, make sure it’s ventilated to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Never use stoves or ovens as heaters.

Stay Hydrated

Avoid alcohol and caffeine. Drink water to stay hydrated.

Power Outage Prep

If you lose power, use flashlights instead of candles to prevent fire hazards. Keep your phone charged and have a battery-powered radio handy for updates.
