The holidays are usually a time of togetherness among friends and family. However, this is not the case for everyone. For some, this could be the first Christmas without a child or the first New Year’s Eve without a spouse. No matter the situation or cause, many people find themselves sensing loneliness therefore it’s important to know a few ways to cope and find new joy this season.
Prioritize Yourself
Clearfield, PA – With fresh snow and wintry winds, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is reminding motorists to slow down, pay attention and use caution on area roadways, especially during snow squalls or low-visibility conditions that may occur.
Motorists always should be alert for sudden squalls which can strike with little or no warning and quickly cause roads to become snow covered. Heavy squalls also can cause whiteout conditions, virtually eliminating a driver’s visibility. Additionally, falling temperatures and blowing and drifting snow can cause icy areas on roadways, including overpasses and bridges. The National Weather Service issues Snow Squall Warnings to alert motorists of potentially hazardous travel. If you receive a Snow Squall Warning, delay travel or exit the highway at the next opportunity.
