Winter outages threaten Iowa homes and heating systems
Rich Patterson of the Indian Creek Nature Center warns that a prolonged Iowa winter outage could shut down home heating and cause burst pipes. He cites 2007 ice storms that left 400000 customers without power and notes two six day outages this year on the East Coast as context for preparedness. Patterson promotes a disaster prep workshop at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Nature Center. He recalls personal experience helping his elderly parents through outages in New Jersey.
