Safe Winter-Spring Tips
A few simple steps will help prepare for a safe winter in the outdoors or during winter power outages:
- Have a winter driving survival kit in your car that includes a shovel, blanket, extra clothing and footwear. See Winter Auto Tips for Safety
- In a power outage, use flashlights or battery-operated lanterns instead of candles or hurricane lamps. If you must use a candle, place it in a secure holder, cover it with a glass chimney, and keep it away from children and pets.
- If you must be outside during cold weather or a snowstorm, avoid overexertion, wear several layers of clothing, wear waterproof and insulated boots and regularly check for frostbite.
