A Bookworm's Tips for Preparing for Winter Storms

by Donna Huber


Are you in the path of Winter Storm Fern? In my area, we are just over 24 hours out from when they say it will start. It will be an ice storm - a major ice storm is likely. They are using words like catastrophic, crippling, and destructive. Yeah, they could be using those words to increase ratings, but even the National Weather Service is using these words. They are also predicting up to an inch (2.5 cm) of ice. I can't remember weather people using those terms or predicting that much ice. So I'm getting prepared to hunker down. Here are my bookish tips. (This list is meant to be fun. Please follow the advice of experts when making your winter weather plans.)
