Web site offers winter tips

SALT LAKE CITY -- It's turning warmer, but winter isn't far away.

That's the message from Gov. Gary Herbert, who has declared Nov. 1-7 Winter Weather Preparedness Week.

Utah got a blast of winter last week, and Herbert says now is a good time to get ready.

A Web site contains some advice on preparing homes and cars for a long winter.

The Web site is a collaborative effort of the National Weather Service, the Utah departments of transportation and public safety, the U.S. Forest Service, Utah Avalanche Center and the American Red Cross.
