Residents and motorists should prepare for winter weather conditions.

  • Check your tires! Tires tend to loose air in colder weather.
  • Plan ahead and allow extra time to reach destinations.
  • Fill your car with gas.
  • Make sure you have the proper emergency equipment in your car and home such as extra batteries, lighters & candles. Even charger packs for cell phones.
  • When driving in icy road conditions, the shortest route is not always the safest. Consider less hilly routes in route planning.
  • Slow down! Remember the faster you are going the longer it takes to stop.
