With the start of the holiday season also comes the possibility of hazardous weather conditions.

Chris Miller, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Lincoln, indicates we are now in the Holiday travel season. He urges motorists to use caution when driving on snowy or icy roads and to keep a winter safety kit in your vehicle.

In addition to winterizing your car, Miller says it is also important to winterize your house. He recommends stocking up on items that you would need in case you are unable to leave your home in the event of a storm.
