If trapped in a blizzard, should you drink alcohol to stay warm?

  1. True

  2. False

The correct answer is: False

Drinking alcohol while trapped in a blizzard may initially help you to feel warmer. However, it can actually be dangerous as alcohol causes blood vessels to dilate, leading to increased blood flow to the skin and a drop in body temperature. This can increase your risk of hypothermia and make it harder for you to properly assess and respond to the dangerous situation you are in. It is important to dress warmly and conserve energy in order to stay warm during a blizzard.
