Winter storms can cause power loss and are a threat to the electrical grid when snow and ice build up on power lines when the added weight\u00a0causes wires and poles to break. Likewise, tree limbs also become heavy with snow and ice causing them to break and fall into power lines.<\/p>\n

When your home loses power, one of your first concerns should be any perishable food on hand.\u00a0A power outage is not only a nuisance, but can make some foods in the freezer and refrigerator unsafe to eat.<\/p>\n

Food can only last for just a few hours when the power goes out. Knowing how to keep food safe before a loss of power \u2013 and to determine if food is safe after a loss of power \u2013 will help minimize the loss of food and reduce the risk of foodborne illness.<\/p>\n
