CDC Puts Out 'Extreme Cold' Guidebook

It's pretty cold outside lately and now the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention wants to help you stay warm and safe this winter.

They've put out an Extreme Cold Prevention Guide that has the usual "obvious" tips like dressing in layers and how to prevent frostbite and hypothermia.

But it also has some valuable information on planning ahead such as putting together an emergency supply list and a winter survival kit, and how to heat your home safely to prevent fire and carbon monoxide poisoning. There's even information on how to prepare your car for the cold weather and what to do if you get stranded.

To read this guide, visit www.cdc.gov.
