In the Lehigh Valley, it seems like it can be 80 degrees one afternoon and a blizzard the next! We’ve grown used to living in an area where winter can come on quickly.

However, if you’re still thinking that the snow is a few weeks off: Don’t!

Get started today with these tips for getting your car ready for the winter in the Lehigh Valley.

1. Keep Your Gas Tank Filled: Your car will work better in low temperatures with a fuller gas tank. If you’re empty on the way home, fill up.
2. Change Your Oil: No better time than when it starts to get cold!
3. Change your fluids and get a basic tune up.
4. Change to snowtires if you are going to be driving in the winter often.
5. Make sure you have a medical kit that has flares in it in case of an emergency.
6. Make sure there are blankets and warm clothes in your car in case you need to wait for help.
