❄️ Winter Storm Watch — Southwest Virginia ❄️
A winter storm is expected this weekend with snow and wintry mixed precipitation, including potential ice, especially late Saturday through Sunday. Conditions could make roads slick and increase the risk of power issues.
Homeowner Tips:
• Protect your home and stay warm – insulate pipes and seal drafts
• In case of power outage, let faucets drip to avoid freezing pipes.
• For long outages, shut off the main water and drain the system to prevent bursts.
• Prepare for power interruptions – charge devices, have flashlights/batteries ready
• Avoid travel until roads are clear.
Please stay tuned to local weather updates. Stay safe this weekend!
