PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Check lake conditions before heading out and be prepared for a

the time to secure loose outdoor items such as patio furniture and

The best thing to do is prepare ahead of time by making sure you
have extra food and water on hand, flashlights with spare batteries
and/or candles in the event of a power outage.
