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. *
