A major winter storm — named Winter Storm Fern — is forecast to sweep across much of the country this weekend, bringing a dangerous mix of heavy snow, ice and frigid temperatures from the South and Midwest into the Northeast.
Falling temperatures and storms like this can strain your vehicle’s battery, tires and fluids, potentially leading to breakdowns or costly repairs. Winter weather risks such as ice-covered roads and heavy snow also increase the chances of getting into an accident or needing to call for roadside assistance.
