LANCASTER – For those without electrical power, keep safety in mind. If using a portable generator, never operate it in an enclosed area, like a garage, where deadly carbon monoxide fumes could accumulate. Check on elderly family members, neighbors, and others who may need assistance during an outage. Remember that candles can start fires. Always use flashlights instead. If you lose power, turn off any appliances that were on when the power went off. For your safety and the safety of utility workers, keep a safe distance from the work crews.
