Weather alert

With freezing temperatures, snowfall, and high winds in the upcoming forecast, the City of Morenci DPW is advising residents take the following precautions: 
• To avoid water lines freezing, consider dripping your faucets as temperatures drop below 20°.
• Replenish batteries for flashlights, gas for generators, and means to stay warm in the event of a power outage.
• Stock up on water in case water lines freeze.
• Make plans to check on elderly relatives and neighbors, and bring pets indoors. 
• Clear snow from furnace vent after heavy accumulation. 
• Avoid parking on street during snowfall to allow for adequate plowing.
