Power Outage in Lakeview?

Severe weather has been known to cause power outages in Lakeview. SERVPRO® of Gold Coast /Lincoln Park /Lakeview has been mitigating storm damage for Lakeview residents for years, and offer some tips on how to prepare for a power outage from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA):

Preparing for a Power Outage

Plan for batteries and other alternative power sources to meet your needs when the power goes out, such as a portable charger or power bank. Have flashlights for every household member. Determine whether your home phone will work in a power outage and how long battery backup will last.

Food Storage

Have enough nonperishable food and water. Keep freezers and refrigerators closed. The refrigerator will keep food cold for about four hours. Monitor temperatures with a thermometer. Throw out food if the temperature is forty degrees or higher.

Know Your Medical Needs

Talk to your medical provider about a power outage plan for medical devices powered by electricity and refrigerated medicines. Find out how long medication can be stored at higher temperatures and get specific guidance for any medications that are critical for life.
