How can I know my clothing needs before I travel?

Joel Widzer (Travel Strategist) gives expert video advice on: How much clothing do I need for my trip?; What is 'versatile clothing'?; Are certain fabrics better for traveling? and more...

What you want to do is, you want to go onto your computer, maybe go onto a site like weather.com and check out the weather for the destination that you're going to be in because that gives you an indication of what type of clothing you should wear. A lot of times maybe there might be wind chill in a city and what you can do, you can cure that by just bringing a scarf. That can help you stay warm. Or, in the summer time there can be high levels of humidity, and what you want to do is make sure that you have the proper clothing. So, what I always do, and I suggest to travelers, is to go onto the computer, check out the 5-day, 10-day outlook for the city you're traveling to so you have a good idea of what to pack.
