September is National Preparedness Month. While we seem to be moving slowly away from the summer severe weather season, Adair and Guthrie County Emergency Management Coordinator Bob Kempf says now is a good time to prepare your vehicle for winter. “Are your jumper cables still in your car? Or, did you take them out and put them in the boat. It might be time to take the rain gear out of your car and replace it with things like a heavy coat and a blanket.”

We’ll get more emergency preparedness tips from Kempf today on Let’s Talk Guthrie County. It airs during the 9 a.m., noon and 5 p.m. hours on K107.9 and www.raccoonvalleyradio.com.
