Tuesday's wintery mix is a prequel of what’s to come over the next few months and Kentucky State Police are reminding you to make sure they're prepared for travel. Police say you should avoid unnecessary travel in winter weather, but if you do go out, make sure your vehicle is ready for slippery roads and frigid temperatures.
Be sure to fully clear your windows and mirrors, allow extra travel time, leave more room between you and the car in front of you and don’t use cruise control. They also recommend keeping your gas tank full and keep a phone charger, blanket and other supplies in your vehicle.
