Indeed, January of 2014 has been rather disappointing in terms of weather conditions. Numerous residents are battling extreme weather temperatures, storms, and strong winds. Unfortunately, there is a higher possibility that this freezing weather is yet to pass.

In line with this, several government and non-government organizations have come up with ideas to assist the public on safely surviving the extreme cold weather.

– Have a complete once-over on your car. This makes sure that seat belts are tight and the car’s hoses are not leaking.

– Keep a bag packed with winter essentials – fully charged phone, kitty litter, flashlight, water, blanket, easy-to-eat snacks, shovel, and first aid kit.

– Residents should stay home as much as possible. Layered clothes should also be worn especially when outdoors. Additionally, drive and walk slowly to keep safe.
