Be Prepared in Winter with a Winter Survival Kit
March and April are the snowiest months in Colorado. When the weather is snowy, icy, and unpredictable, it is crucial to keep a few essential emergency supplies in your car. Keep these items in your car during the winter months and you will be prepared for almost anything you encounter.
Here is a list of a basic winter survival kit:
Portable Phone Charger that is charged
Sturdy scraper/snow brush/snow shovel to clear snow
Flashlight with extra batteries or crank-powered flashlight
Blankets, sleeping bag, and winter clothing, gloves, and a hat
A gallon jug of water and non-perishable snacks like granola bars
First Aid kit and essential medications
Tire chains and tow strap
Jumper cables
Flares/reflectors to signal for help and warn other motorists
Battery or crank-powered radio to listen to emergency broadcasts
Bag of sand/kitty litter, the added weight in the trunk can help rear-wheel vehicles gain traction on slippery roads. Second, the sand or kitty litter can be poured around your tires if they get stuck in the snow, slush, or ice. Did you know you can also use your car mats in a pinch to help gain traction if you are stuck in snow or mud?
Colorado Department of Transportation has some great information on their website including tips for driving in the snow, winter driving preparedness, road conditions, and you can even track snowplows!
