From the Westchester County Department of Health:
-Be sure to fill your prescriptions ahead of time to avoid running out of medication during and after the storm.
-Be prepared with an emergency plan and up to date supplies.
-Get extra ice and dry ice to help keep food cold. If you lose power, keep refrigerator and freezers closed as much as possible.
-Fill all fuel tanks for back-up generators and vehicles.
-Ensure your oil tanks are filled and securely capped to avoid floating, tipping and oil spills.
Tanks at grade level should have their vents covered with plastic to prevent water from getting inside.
-Avoid unnecessary travel during and immediately after the storm, to give utility and road crews time to clear trees and downed wires.
