Getting to work on a rainy day using public transport can be a drag, especially when every other car driving by is splashing you … here’s a checklist of what to have to make your commute a little bit easier:
Rain Coat
Rain gear, such as a bright raincoat will make you visible to motorists and other pedestrians. Make sure your raincoat is water resistant and, if possible, warm as well.
Umbrella
If you must have anything, an umbrella is your best friend in rainy weather, once again the brighter the better.
Wellingtons
Rain boots are a great idea to keep warm and will also allow you to navigate through wet grass and puddles easily.
Extra clothes
Taking an extra set of clothes can come in handy to ensure that you are not forced to stay in soggy clothes all day.
Your cellphone can be an all-encompassing communication tool complete with maps, emergency numbers, navigation tools and safety apps. Make sure you pack a charger, power bank, an extra battery or even a spare cellphone for emergencies.
