Hey Western PA friends, if you’re out driving in this snowy weather, make sure you’re prepared just in case you get stuck! It’s always smart to have some blankets, extra gloves, hats, and even hand warmers in the car to stay warm. An ice scraper, snow brush, a small shovel, and something like sand or cat litter can help you out if you’re stuck on ice. Don’t forget some basics like jumper cables, a flashlight with batteries, and a first aid kit. Pack a few snacks, some bottled water (just don’t let it freeze), and a phone charger so you can stay connected. Little things like a multi-tool, duct tape, and extra windshield washer fluid can also come in handy. If you do get stuck, remember to stay with your car, keep the exhaust pipe clear of snow, and only run the engine every so often to save fuel. Stay safe out there, and take it slow on those roads!
