You’re familiar with sweater weather, hot chocolate season and the holidays. But this time of year is also the start of storm season. With the cold weather coming in, it is time to start preparing for winter storms and power outages. The best way to avoid a total blackout is to get a backup generator, but you will also need a good stock of supplies to get you through the storm. A storm bin to keep in your home during all seasons, will be especially handy during in the winter time!
Here is our C21 storm prep list:
Lights
Candles and flashlights are essential in any storm bin. Make sure you have a lighter/matches and extra batteries in there as well.
Food/Water

Blankets
You never know how long the power could be out for and how long you could be without heat. Have extra blankets and sleeping bags readily available to get cozy when the temperature starts to dip.
