Snow on the ground significantly increases slip risk for pedestrians. Studies show snow triples the probability of a fall. Wear boots with good grip and slow down on footpaths.^[2][3]

Choosing the right clothing significantly affects thermal comfort throughout the day.^[4]

• Heavy coat or insulated jacket — feels like -15°C.
• Scarf and gloves — cold conditions, temperature near or below 0°C.
• Warm waterproof boots with grip — snow or icy surfaces increase slip risk.
• Wide-brim hat and SPF 30+ sunscreen — UV index 6. UV-protective clothing covers more skin than sunscreen alone.^[5]

Warm layers essential today.
