If
You’re
Caught
in
a
Blizzard
i
If
you
are stopped by heavy snow, you could
be
in
a
serious situation. You
should
probably stay
with
your vehicle unless you
know
for
sure that
you
are near help and you can hike through
the
snow. Here are some things to
-
-
do
to
summon help and
keep
yourself
and
your passengers safe: Turn on
your hazard flashers. Tie
a
red cloth to your vehicle to alert police
that
you’ve been stopped
by
the
snow. Put
on
extra clothing or wrap
a
blanket
around
you.
If
you have
no
blankets or extra clothing, make body
insulators from newspapers, burlap bags, rags, floor mats
--
anything you
can
wrap
around yourself or tuck under
your
clothing
to
keep warm.
You
can
run
the engine
to
keep warm,
but
be careful.
