(Le Mars) — Should you encounter bad weather while driving and become stranded, the advice from the Iowa State Patrol is to stay inside with your vehicle.
Trooper John Farley says motorists should equip themselves with a survival kit for when they are traveling during the winter months, and especially if you are traveling during winter weather advisories or warnings.
Farley says if you do become stranded, try to describe your location with as much specifics as possible.
