#3 Weather Watch
Winter weather can throw up a few nasty surprises so check reports before you travel. This aspect of travel is beyond your control but it pays to know the forecast so you can allow extra time if necessary. While nobody wants to think about worst-case scenario, it’s sensible to have a contingency plan if a winter storm threatens to dampen your spirits.
#4 Secure Your Home
If your home will be unoccupied while you’re away then make sure you’ve got it secured. Cancel any deliveries, set lights to come on automatically or ask a neighbor to keep an eye on things. If the temperature is going to drop significantly while you’re absent, consider setting the heating to come on low to avoid the risk of burst pipes. Also think about maybe leaving some boots on the porch or a car on the driveway, all signs that your home is actually occupied.
