How can you prepare for a power outage?

Extreme temperature fluctuations can cause disruptions to daily services we rely on, such as water and power.

Be ready for power and water outages with these simple tips:

  • Download the Alberta Emergency Alert app for critical, life-saving alerts.
  • Find out where your community will post information and updates during an emergency.
  • Gather supplies like canned/dried foods, battery-powered flashlights/radio and extra batteries.
  • Store bottled water for your family (including pets) for drinking, cooking and hygiene.
