STORM SAFETY

TIP OF THE MONTH

THINK SMART AFTER THE STORM

Storm debris can hide dangers, such as downed power lines. Use caution in any cleanup effort. Any downed or sagging wires should be considered energized and potentially dangerous. Stay away, warn others to stay away, and call the utility.

5-Ingredient Lemon Bars

Crust Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup cold butter, diced

1/4 cup powdered sugar

Filling Ingredients:

4 large eggs

1 cup powdered sugar

1/2 cup freshly-squeezed lemon juice zest of 1 lemon

2 tbsp. all-purpose flour

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F and line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment. Pulse crust ingredients in a food processor (or combine in a bowl) until crumbly. Press evenly into pan. Bake for 20 minutes until lightly golden. Whisk lemon filling ingredients until smooth. When crust is done, pour filling over hot crust. Bake 18–20 minutes more, until set. Cool completely, then chill in fridge at least 2 hours. Dust with powdered sugar, slice, and serve.

CALL BEFORE YOU DIG

811 is the number you should call before you begin any digging project. They mark the location of buried utilities with paint or flags so that you will not unintentionally dig into an underground utility line. Once all of your utilities have been located, you can safely start your digging project. Whether you are a homeowner or a professional excavator, one call to 811 gets your underground utility lines marked for free.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU

As we know, storms and weather related damage have the potential to change our plans in an instant. Major weather events can even create widespread outages. During these times, we work hard to safely restore power, keep you informed, and make outage reporting easy for you.

IF THE POWER GOES OUT:

What to Check

Check your breakers. If any of the breakers are off, turn them on. If it kicks back off, you may have a short and should call an electrician.

Check with your neighbors to see if their power is also out.

Report your outage.
