Many are focused on the winter weather, and rightfully so, BUT survivors of the Dec. 9th storms are just starting on their path to recovery & still need support! Long-term needs will be uncovered over the coming months and funds are needed to ensure homes & lives can be restored!
Long-term recovery is an extensive journey for our neighbors impacted by the tornados. Your donations help with critical recovery resources. Visit to donate and learn how your support restores our community. ❤

After a disaster, it is natural to experience different and strong emotions. Coping with these feelings and getting help when you need it will help you and your family recover from a disaster. Connect with family, friends, and others in your community.

When the power goes out in winter, the cold can be deadly but even without power, there are still ways to warm things up. Closing blinds and curtains and closing room doors can help contain heat, and stuffing towels in the cracks under doors can help keep the warmth in.

Update from TVA CEO Jeff Lyash - Bitterly cold temperatures are creating high demand for electricity across the region. You can help! Reduce your electricity use, specifically between 6 am and 10 am central time on Wed., Jan. 17.

NDOT is asking everyone to stay off the roads again! With the new layer of ice, they are treacherous! I know we are tired of staying home but...STAY HOME IF POSSIBLE!
“…as temperatures drop during the afternoon, evening and overnight, PLEASE STAY OFF ROADS if possible. Road conditions will remain quite dangerous for at least the next 24-48 hours due to extreme cold.”
