Temperatures are beginning to plummet across the nation, causing us to zip up our coats and grab a warm hat and gloves. There is no doubt about it; the season of ice and snow is here. History has shown that the Northeast, Midwest, and even the South have been hit with outages that can last for days – and that doesn't necessarily come from a blizzard's blanketing of an area's landscape. Ice can be an even bigger culprit as it leaves its frozen footprint before melting away into a considerable amount of trouble for a utility and its customers. Downed power lines and water main breaks can affect thousands of customers and make a cold and dire situation even more difficult for health compromised consumers. A moment's lapse in services isn't an option. And with COVID-19 still hanging around until a vaccine is in place, crew safety and contact tracing are paramount. Is your plan to attack winter weather developed? Now's the time to assess and reassess the measures an organization has in place before the season gets ahead of us – and it all begins with emergency and incident command software.
