Taking a winter storm kit along with you, including such items as tire chains, booster cables, flashlights, a shovel, blankets, and extra clothing, is recommended. Those who must travel should also take water, a first aid kit, and anything else that would help them survive in case they become stranded. The latest road conditions are also available by calling 5 1 1.
