ODESSA, Texas (KOSA) - Tens of thousands of West Texans are without power following this weekend’s winter storm.
The National Weather Service recommends the following tips for staying warm when the power is out:
-Close blinds or curtains to keep in some heat
-Close off rooms to avoid wasting heat
-Wear layers of loose, fitting, lightweight, warm clothing
-Eat and drink. Food provides energy to warm the body. Avoid caffeine and alcohol.
-Stuff towels or rags in cracks under doors.
