What should I do if I experience a power outage?

In the event of a power outage, the first step is to contact your local utility provider to report the outage and receive updates on the situation. Make sure to have a backup communication method available in case your primary device loses power. Unplug electronic devices to prevent damage from power surges when the power is restored. Keep refrigerators and freezers closed to maintain the cold temperature. Use flashlights instead of candles for safety purposes. Consider having a battery-operated radio on hand for updates on the situation. Follow any instructions or recommendations given by your utility provider to ensure a safe and efficient restoration of power.
