…This is Winter Weather Preparedness Week…

Has your car, van, or pickup truck had a vehicle checkup lately? Now is the time to make sure your automobile can survive the coming winter weather.

Check the tires, battery and brakes, along with the heating and defrosting system. Change the antifreeze, if needed, to protect the engine and radiator from freezing up in the cold temperatures that will be with us this winter.

Carry a windshield scraper, jumper cables, a small shovel, a flashlight, a blanket and additional warm clothing, drinking water, and high calorie non-perishable food.

Also update the emergency kits in your vehicles with a battery powered radio, extra batteries, a first aid kit with pocket knife, necessary medications, tow chain or rope, road salt and sand, a distress flag and emergency flares.
