Dear Friend,

This weekend, most of Mississippi is facing a significant risk of freezing rain, sleet, or snow. Now is a good time to start preparing your home and checking in on your family. Dangerously cold temperatures are also expected to move in Friday night and stick around into early next week. Keep an eye on the forecast and local alerts for the latest updates as conditions change. 

Below are graphics from the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) that provide guidance on how to prepare. You can find complete preparation recommendations by reviewing this winter guide. You can also visit ready.gov/winter-ready for helpful information.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve Mississippi's Third Congressional District. Stay safe.
