Winter Is Coming And Here Are The 9 Things You Need In Your Home In Case The Worse Happens
The Farmer’s Almanac has predicted that this winter will be another cold one which has prompted many people to get ready in case the worse happens.
1. Wood Supply
Make sure you cut plenty of wood and have it stored in case the power goes out in your area.
2. Chimney, Roof, and House “Integrity”
Don’t procrastinate, and have that chimney swept out now, or do it yourself.
3. “Twice on the Pipes”
4. Shift the Food Supply
For your perishables, now will be a good time to fill up that freezer with frozen food, as you will soon have freezing temperatures to sustain them if you should lose power.
5. Personal Gear and Clothing
Get those winter clothes out of storage and ready to use. This includes changing out the light sleeping bag of the summer with the extreme cold weather bag and Gore-Tex cover.
6. Stored Goods and Prepper Supplies
Ensure that all of your perishables and canned goods and supplies are protected from the cold and from alternate freezing-thawing cycles.
7. Emergency Equipment
Make sure you have everything ready and your family knows how to use them.
8. Snow Removal
It is pretty self-explanatory but in case you are still confused, make sure you have the proper equipment to get rid of snow and ice that may keep you from getting to safety.
9. “I’m your vehicle, Ba-by!”
Load up the trunk or back bed with supplies for emergencies, such as food, blankets, emergency gear, and what is needed.
