November is when Pocatello begins to see lower temperatures and occasional frosts. Use this time to winterize your apartment and make sure you stay comfortable, safe, and efficient.
✔️ Winter Prep Checklist
-
Seal drafts around windows and doors with weatherstripping or draft snakes.
-
Schedule HVAC checks, replace filters, and make sure vents are unobstructed.
-
Use thick rugs or runners on tile or hardwood floors to reduce cold on bare feet.
-
Set humidity levels: 30–50% helps prevent static and dry air.
-
Stock up on essentials (ice melt, shovel, cozy blankets) early to avoid last-minute rush.
-
Safety checks: Ensure smoke & CO detectors are working, and avoid overloading power strips with heaters.
