With a steadfast commitment to community safety and service, Medina Electric Cooperative is dedicated to proactive measures that minimize power disruptions and expedite restoring service in the event of severe weather conditions.

Medina EC suggests you do the same in preparing your family and property before storms approach. Stay well-informed regarding various emergency scenarios which could impact you and know the corresponding recommended actions to take. Create a comprehensive emergency plan for your family. Assemble an essential emergency supply kit. Engage with your community by actively participating in emergency preparedness efforts.

Additionally, Ready.Gov, an official website of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, offers a wealth of storm preparedness tips, including:

• When thunder roars, go indoors! Seek shelter indoors or within a vehicle with a roof during adverse weather conditions.
• Turn around. Don’t drown! Avoid driving through flooded roadways.
• Pay attention to weather reports. Stay in the know with local weather reports for your area before severe weather hits.
