Extreme weather phenomena such as destructive storms, heatwaves, or blizzards strain on the electric grid. For National Preparedness Month, we are reminding families to proactively prepare for potential disasters, some of which might lead to extended power outages.
Matt Blashaw, HGTV host and homebuilding expert, partners with the Propane Education &amp; Research Council (PERC), to share tips to safeguard your home and family before an extended power outage. Matt will share his own experience of living without power after a tornado caused a power outage in his community. This is an important reminder for your viewers during National Preparedness Month, and as the Fall and Winter seasons quickly approach.
