ARE YOU PREPARED?
Cold weather preparedness involves protecting yourself, your home, and your pets by dressing in layers, securing your house to prevent heat loss, and having an emergency kit.
Key actions include staying indoors during the coldest parts of the day, keeping your home warm and insulated, wrapping pipes, and bringing pets inside. For a home emergency kit, prepare for a few days without power with water, non-perishable food, a flashlight, and a radio.
Dress in layers: Wear several layers of loose-fitting clothing, with an inner layer to wick moisture, a middle insulating layer, and an outer wind and water-resistant layer.
Protect extremities: Wear a hat, gloves, and waterproof, insulated boots to protect your ears, face, hands, and feet.
Be careful while driving: Keep your car in good condition, carry a winter survival kit, and be prepared for delays.
