The Storm Tracker weather team helps you prepare for winter

By Payton Counts

This week is the Missouri Winter Weather Preparedness Week. The Storm Tracker Weather Team has tips and tricks on how to prepare and stay safe this winter.

If you haven’t already, make sure to download the Storm Tracker Weather App so you can get updates on your local weather.

Also make sure to have an emergency kit in your car and keep non-perishable food, batteries, medical supplies and items to stay warm in case of an outage in your home.

Plan ahead if you are traveling and slow down in winter weather conditions when driving.
