This is one of my favorite
things to do: swim in icy water! |
It's an easy name to remember, because I am a polar bear and I live up at the cold North Pole!  |
I love all kinds of weather!
Bad weather does not bother me, but I am a bear and I am built to handle it!
However, where *people* are concerned, it's VERY SMART to take the right steps to protect yourselves from bad storms!
The "Getting Ready for Bad Weather"
tips below are provided by the Federal Emergency Management
