First of all, you should not be driving on a remote highway if the forecast is for a blizzard. Postpone the trip until conditions improve! If there is only a chance of a blizzard and you have a strong reason for traveling, you should be prepared with blankets, warm clothing, food, and water in your car. You should also bring a shovel. If the snow starts to get heavy, you should avoid driving on minor roads that may not be priorities for snow plowing. Stick to numbered highways.
If you find yourself in blizzard conditions, you should periodically clear snow away from your car door so that you can open it and you are not trapped inside your car. Otherwise, you should wait in your car, wrapped in blankets, until help arrives. It would be wise to keep your water wrapped inside your blanket with you so that it doesn’t freeze. You should not walk farther than you can see in blizzard conditions. If you wait in your car, snow plowing crews will eventually find and rescue you.
