With the onset of winter weather comes the necessity of a winter-specific emergency kit. It’s important to ensure your emergency kit is kept up-to-date, fully stocked, and easily accessible. Here are some important items to keep on supply:

Flashlights – make sure they are in working order

Battery-Powered Radio

Bottled Water

Snack Foods – non perishable items with high protein that do not need to be refrigerated or cooked

Warm Clothes – extra socks, hats, mittens

First Aid Kit

Necessary Medications – always make sure your prescriptions are filled before expected bad weather

Blankets

Cell Phone

*If you drive, it’s a good idea to keep a similar emergency kit in your vehicle. *
