they have adequate heat. Outdoor pets should also have adequate
warmth. Area shelters should continue to expect increased demand.

Everyone should take adequate safety precautions with their
heating systems... and make sure to utilize Carbon monoxide
detectors in enclosed spaces. Extra caution should be used with
portable space heaters. Make sure space heaters are not left
unattended and are not used near flammable materials such as
curtains or bed coverings.

Winds this strong can make driving difficult... especially for
high profile vehicles. Use extra caution.
