🚨❄️ NH Snow Alert: 2 Feet Expected — Here’s What to Do Before It Hits ❄️🚨
New Hampshire winters don’t mess around. With up to 2 feet of snow in the forecast, now’s the time to prep your home and property before the storm arrives.
âś… Top things to consider:
🏠Roof + ice dams: Heavy snow and temperature swings can create ice dams and leaks. Watch for buildup near roof edges and make sure vents are clear.
🚪 Clear exits: Shovel at least one main entry/exit and keep pathways accessible in case of an emergency.
🔥 Outage prep: Charge phones, stock batteries, have flashlights ready, and confirm your generator plan (if you have one).
🚗 Driveway + vehicles: Park away from trees, lift wipers, fuel up, and plan your plowing/shoveling strategy—especially if snow turns wet and heavy.
đź’§ Frozen pipe prevention: Keep heat steady, open cabinets under sinks, and let faucets drip if temps drop hard.
🌲 Tree safety: Snow-loaded branches can break quickly—move vehicles away from overhangs and avoid walking under heavy limbs.
🚒 Fire safety: If you’re using fireplaces, wood stoves, or space heaters, make sure vents are clear and CO detectors are working.
