Answer:
Explanation:
While at a friend's house watching a horror movie snow began to fall. It was late October and trees were still full of leaves. I said my good byes and began my trip to my apartment. As I was driving, I began to understand the danger I was in. The storm was quickly developing and heavy snow splashed on my windshield. A car crash being handled by firefighters required me a detour. Along a road I barely knew tree limbs began to fall, weighed low by the heavy snow. Luckily, I made it back to my apartment complex, where, with power out, someone had pried the gate open. I parked next to a neighbor's car with a tree on it. I worked my back towards my place in a complete blackout, then blazing light when the sky was lit completely blue by exploding transformers.
That next week there was no power for much of the region. Some parts of Connecticut were without power for 2 weeks. It's important to be prepared for winter weather before winter. If you lose power, heating, cooking, even getting money can be complicated. Having a car helped, but getting gas was difficult because most gas stations didn't have generators to power the pumps. The few gas stations that had power didn't have telephone lines to take credit card payments. Grocery stores allow for cash back on transactions which got us cash while ATMs were inoperable. Prepare just a few things mentally. I know in retrospect I wich I had!
