Weather nightmare just a day away
Today is the day for Villagers to prepare for a projected record storm.
The storm is supposed to be as bad if not worse than a record storm in 2002. Most of us weren't here in 2002, so heed all of the warnings.
Trusted forecast models are predicting 8 to 11 inches of snow in Hot Springs Village for Wednesday. Needless to say, there will probably be no meetings or services tomorrow. Schools will undoubtedly be closed.
I will bring you up-to-date information throughout the day. Or, as long as our internet service is available.
Make sure you have prescriptions filled, a week's supply of food and water and wood for the fireplace or wood stove. Today is the day to get out and do as much as possible since tomorrow you will be stuck inside. Make sure you know where your fresh batteries are for your flashlights and radio.
Be very careful if you intend to use candles during a possible power outage. None of us want to see a house burn down due to a candle mishap.
At this point no closures have been announced but I will keep you informed.
What makes this storm different from the storm of 2002 is the HSV police have a better communication system in place. In 2002 the communication system went out and cell phone service was unavailable. A few ham radio operators helped out the police and most communication was by line of sight. The system available today has back-up if tragedy should strike. And rest assured the POA is making sure it is ready to handle all contingencies just like we are.
Be careful, be prepared and stay warm.
