Electricity Express<\/strong><\/span> would like to advise what to do in case of a power outage. Extreme Cold Weather Can Bring Power Outages<\/p>\nFirst, be sure that you are not the only one without power. If you are the only one, maybe you forgot to pay your bill or other issues can happen. If you are the only one without power and you paid the electricity bill, call your electricity provider\u2026<\/p>\n
Then, check and reset your electric breaker box. Extreme Cold Weather Power Outages<\/p>\n
Find your fuse box, usually in a closet or in the garage, and reset it by switching off and on the main breaker. If there is no main breaker, do this one by one.<\/p>\n
While doing this, have another family member call the utility company, not the electricity company. If this does not resolve the problem, by this time the utility company may have an answer and an estimated time to resolve the problem.<\/p>\n
A massive power outage can last for a few hours or a few days. Either way, be prepared.<\/p>\n
Essentials for a long-time power outage.<\/span><\/h3>\nSleeping bags, bucket, books and board games, canned food, can opener, work gloves, water, rope, gasoline\u2026<\/p>\n
On a personal note, there was a time we experienced a gasoline outage. We got scared, still, I got into survival mode, I put together some essentials.<\/p>\n
Flashlights, water, dry foods, ropes, gloves, tools, medical kits, gas fluid, matches, propane gas, gasoline, and much more.<\/p>\n
We never know when the zombies will come. I can\u2019t build a bunker but, I got ready, just in case.<\/p>\n
