Utility Notice & Outages
-
Visit the Weather Center FIRST if you are experiencing an outage.
-
Embedded in our Storm Center are links to many local utilities including Xcel Energy, Comcast, Century Link and Denver Water to name a few.
-
If your heat is lost, be sure to let water trickle from the kitchen/bathroom faucet(s) and open the cabinets as well to keep warm air circulating. This small step can help prevent freezing pipes.
-
Portable space heaters are NOT to be left unattended, facing furniture, near piles of clothes / paper.
-
A gas space heater should always be used cautiously and is not allowed in any of EDGE’s properties. Special attention to ensure fresh air is flowing through the home – including keeping a window open at all times – so residents will not be overcome with fumes.
-
Expect internet / wireless access to become spotty - especially where power is lost.
-
So, keep phones & tablets charged as much as possible!
-
Downed Trees
-
Use caution where trees may be broken, powerlines downed, and cars are stuck or off the road.
-
We expect police, fire, CDOT and utilities to all have crews active across the Metro.
-
They may be the first responders to such events and are better equipped for these events.
-
Should your home be damaged during the storm, again, follow the recommendations list here.
-
Be sure you, your family, pets and neighbor’s safety is taken into consideration first.
-
Common sense goes a long way.
Shoveling / Plowing Status
-
CDOT has made clear their plowing priorities will be interstates, highways, and main roads.
-
Our snow team will operate through the storm. Should roads become impassable, our team will do its best to clear walks, stairs, paths and lots.
-
Still, this will take time so patience is important as well. while not taking unnecessary risks.
-
If you are park in any EDGE managed parking lots, be sure to park your auto in the ‘drive-out’ position from the space (versus ‘back-out’).
-
Movement is much easier for you and it helps when plowing.
