In a Facebook post said Summit Fire & EMS offered these winter weather tips from the Summit County Sheriff’s Office of Emergency Management:

• Expect snowy roads with blowing snow creating whiteout conditions. Stay off the roads if possible.
• If you are stuck in your car, stay inside.
• You can request the most recent road conditions by calling 511.
• Keep utility connections outside your home clear of snow and protected from falling snow.
• Install and test smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors with battery backups.
• Gather supplies in case you have to stay at home without power for several days.
• Consider each person’s specific needs, including medications. Consider the needs of your pets. Have extra batteries for radios and flashlights.
• Be prepared for winter weather at home, at work and in the car. Create an emergency supply kit for your car. Includes jumper cables, sand, a flashlight, warm clothing, blankets, bottled water and non-perishable snacks. Make sure you have a full tank of gas.
• Stay away from downed power lines. Always assume that an electrical line, even if it is on or near the ground, is live and therefore dangerous. Under no circumstances should you touch or move a broken electrical cord. If you encounter a downed power line, leave the area and report it immediately by calling 1-800-895-1999.
• Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. Only use generators and grills outdoors and away from windows. Never heat your home with a gas stove or oven.
