Now that we're getting into the snowier months of the year, it's a good time to review some winter outdoor activity safety tips. Take a look at these tips from the CDC as you head out into the cold.


  • Wear appropriate winter clothing, including: a jacket or coat, inner layers of warm clothing, mittens or gloves, hats, scarves, and waterproof boots to keep your feet warm and dry

  • Work slowly when doing chores or other outside work

  • Carry a cell phone

  • Take a friend and an outdoor emergency kit when taking part in outdoor activities

  • Put snow salt, sand, or cat litter on icy spots on sidewalks, driveways, etc.
