Despite the warm temperatures lately, OPP want drivers to ensure they are winter ready.
OXFORD COUNTY - A small dose of snow over the weekend has prompted OPP to remind motorists to be winter ready on the roads.
We are expecting rain over the next few days, but weather is unpredictable and Constable Ken Johnston says it is important to be prepared at all times.
"Your emergency kit should include warm clothing, blankets, maybe a candle as well as an emergency cell phone charger. Be sure to make sure your vehicle is ready and that you are ready. It is also important to give yourself lots of reactionary time, if you see snow... go slow."
Johnston adds that you should also have the ice and snow cleared off the entire vehicle. You must be able to see out off of your windows and mirrors, your lights must be visible to other drivers and you do not want excess snow to be blowing off the roof and hood of the vehicle while you are driving.
