Seattle Public Utilities would like us to remind you that, despite the gorgeous weather we’ve had lately, the winter weather is on its way, and everyone needs to do a few things to keep safe and sound:

• keep your storm drains clear of leaf debris
• build an emergency supply kit (including water, radio and light)
• create a family disaster plan (and practice)
