Facts about Blizzards
A blizzard is a severe snow storm with winds over 35 mph and visibility of less than a 1/4 mile for more than 3 hours.
Blizzards can also occur after snowfall when high winds cause whiteouts (fallen snow blowing around) and snowdrifts (huge mountains of snow), which decrease visibility.
To avoid hypothermia if caught outdoors during a blizzard, stay hydrated and nourished. Keep the blood flowing by moving around. Also build a snow cave to block winds, which reduce your body temperature. And don't eat snow.
While keeping yourself safe, also think about the well-being of your animals by creating an emergency plan for your pets.
If you must travel by car during a blizzard, it is vital to have an emergency aid kit (water, jumper cables, road flares, tow rope, non-perishable snacks) in case your car breaks down, you get into an accident, or become stuck in the snow.
Traveling by car or foot is highly discouraged during blizzard conditions. It increases the chance of hypothermia, accident and death.
When a blizzard is in the forecast, you may receive a “Winter Storm Watch," which means there is a possibility of a storm taking effect. You could also receive a “Winter Storm Warning," which means a storm is on the way or already taking place.
As soon as you receive a storm warning, get prepared. You could lose electricity (this includes hot water and heat), so stock up on non-perishable foods, blankets, flashlights, extra batteries, and candles beforehand.
