Safety First

Snow in Arkansas is rare, so it’s important to be prepared. Here are some tips:

Driving Tips

  • Slow Down: Drive slower and allow more space between you and other vehicles.
  • Brake Gently: Apply the brakes slowly to avoid sliding.
  • Clear Your Vehicle: Remove all snow and ice from your car before hitting the road.
  • Check the Weather: Look at conditions before you leave home to ensure your destination is safe.

Home Tips

  • Seal Drafts: Use weatherstrips or blankets to block cold air from windows and doors.
  • Maintain Heat: Keep your thermostat at a reasonable level to prevent overworking your heating system.
