Cold weather is coming: What do you need to do to prepare?

Even though it is still warm and sunny out, we all know that winter’s extreme cold and snow will be here before we know it. So how do you do some winter preparedness?

Winter preparedness is, fortunately, a simple thing so you don’t need to overly stress about it.

With a few easy steps, you can do some winter preparedness measures and know that your family will be ready for whatever Mother Nature throws at you. Read on:

Gather supplies

Winter storms can bring power outages, so make sure you have a few basic supplies on hand. Firewood if you have a working fireplace, warm blankets, some non-perishable food and water and a form of light like candles or flashlights (don’t forget matches and batteries!).

Keep your car stocked

Don’t forget to prep your car for winter either. Make sure you have jumper cables, sand or kitty litter (in case you get stuck), a flashlight and a few blankets. You might also include a few bottles of water and some shelf-stable snacks. And keep your car gassed up in the winter!

Residential solutions

Do you live in an area where you rely on electricity to run your well pump? Or do you lose power a lot during winter storms? It might be time to consider investing in a generator for your home. A good residential generator can be a good solution to power outages, making sure your home seamlessly transitions to power – and making winter preparedness a lot easier!
