St. Louis weather brings many changes in the winter. Bitter cold & strong winds are sometimes the case. Our winters around here have been slightly warmer in the past years though. The Farmers Almanac is predicting a snowy winter this season. With that in mind, here`s a few steps to prepare yourself for the snow. Obviously, first rule of thumb is to dress warm. Put enough layers on to keep warm outside, but don`t over due it as natural body heat can get hot quick. Try to do a short as you would when you work out. This helps to loosen the muscles in your body. "Always lift with your knees, and not your back." This is a phrase we have all heard before as it also applies to shoveling snow. Stay hydrated and schedule short breaks as to not over exert yourself from the cold weather. Or if the thought of being in front of a warm fire sounds better than old man winter, let us remove the snow for you. Sit in your window sipping hot cocoa as we battle the St. Louis winters. We offer residential and commercial snow removal services in St Louis city and county for walkways & driveways.
