If you're preparing for Tropical Storm #Dorian and own a portable generator, keep it outdoors and at least 20ft away from your home. Portable generators produce carbon monoxide - deadly gas that can't be seen or smelled and can kill in minutes. Have working CO alarms in your home

ALT A very dirty apartment. The text reads: Yeah, mom! The apartment was great! The apartment was not great. See it before you sign it. Look for: two ways out of each room, working smoke alarms, sprinklers, doors and windows that open easily.
