Some of the dangers associated with winter storms include loss of heat, power and telephone service and a shortage of supplies. To help protect your family, now is the time to put together a disaster supply kit. Here are some items to include:
* Flashlights and extra batteries
* Battery-powered NOAA Weather Radio and a commercial radio
* Bottled water and non-perishable food that requires no cooking
* First-aid supplies
* Fire extinguisher, smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector
* If appropriate, extra medications and baby items
* If you have an emergency heating source such as a fireplace or space heater, make sure you have proper ventilation
* Make sure pets have shelter and plenty of food and water

For additional information, contact your county or tribal emergency management office, the National Weather Service or ReadyWisconsin.wi.gov.
