⛈️⚠️ Plan ahead if you’re travelling today, #StormBabet will change driving conditions.

🚗 If you're driving, slow down and give more space between you and the vehicle in front - it’s harder for tyres to grip in wet weather. #WeatherReady #TRIP

Cold water shock causes involuntary reflexes when submerged in cold water including a rapid increase in heart/blood pressure that can result in cardiac arrest. It doesn't matter how strong a swimmer you are. Learn more about cold water shock here: https://t.co/YGzhKbHfss
