Some people think the busiest time of year for lost items is the summer when people lose items at the beach. I find that the winter, with ice and snow storms, is just as busy. People shovel and scrape windows with no gloves on, sledding, and other winter sports. Their fingers shrink when they get cold and then go their rings.

If you find yourself in this situation, check your gloves first. Many times, I have found rings in the finger of the glove. If it is not there, take pictures of the area you are in or mark the area somehow. Call a professional as soon as possible. If you wait until the snow melts, someone else might find it. 

The best advice is not to wear your jewelry out in bad weather.
