Today’s Tip

Be prepared for severe weather, particularly tornadoes and snowstorms. Have an emergency kit with non-perishable food, flashlights, batteries, a first-aid kit, cash, and a battery-powered radio in case you lose power. Familiarize yourself with evacuation routes in your area. Make sure your vehicle is stocked with a winter emergency kit, including blankets, jumper cables, and a bag of sand or cat litter for extra traction if you end up stuck in the snow.
