State Official: Prepare for Winter Weather Now
South Dakota Ag Connection - 10/25/2021
Winter has started to make its presence known in South Dakota already this year, and state officials say now is the time to prepare for winter weather.
Oct. 27 is Winter Weather Awareness Day in South Dakota. The South Dakota Department of Public Safety and its Office of Emergency Management say the public needs to be ready.
"Take the time now to prepare your homes and vehicles for winter because after a winter storm starts, it is too late," said Tina Titze, director of the Office of Emergency Management. "By preparing now, you can be ready when the cold and snow actually begin."
