In the aftermath of the recent record-setting winter storms in the region, Greene County Emergency Management Agency (GCEMA) Director Roger Axe offered up several ways for Greene County residents to be prepared and to stay safe during inclement weather.
PLAN AHEAD AND BE READY
* Put together a disaster supplies kit for your household. Clearly label an easy-to-find, sturdy box and make sure all family members know where it is kept. Include a battery-powered NOAA weather radio, a portable radio, flashlight, extra batteries, canned food, a non-electric can opener, first aid supplies - including essential medications - and bottled water. Make sure each family member has a warm coat, gloves or mittens, a hat and water-resistant boots.
