Household clutter can block residents from exiting and fire fighters from entering a home. The delay can take time away from fire fighters efforts to save victims, time that could be the difference between life and death. Follow these tips to stay safe and remove clutter from your household.

In an emergency, every second matters. Fire fighters need quick access to hydrants to protect lives and property. Please help by keeping snow and ice at least 3 feet away from fire hydrants. A few minutes of clearing can make a life-saving difference.

❄️ Winter Weather Alert – Stay Safe & Stay Warm! ❄️

Tonight through the weekend and into next week, we’re expecting snow and frigid, below-zero temperatures.

Please take extra precautions to keep yourself and others safe.

✔️ Limit time outdoors when possible
✔️ Give yourself extra travel time if snow arrives
✔️ If able, park vehicles in driveways (not on streets) so plows can clear roads efficiently
✔️ Check on friends, family, and neighbors

Tips from Auburn Electric:

⚡️Keep your thermostat set at a consistent temperature
⚡️Additional layers including sweaters, sweatshirts, and blankets can provide extra warmth without raising the thermostat
⚡️Rolled towels placed at the edge of doors can help to keep drafts out
⚡️Space heaters are not only a fire hazard they will raise your bill
⚡️Never use a stove or oven to heat your house as it is a fire hazard
