The threat of freezing temps and hard cold weather isn’t over just yet this season. There are 5 things you should think about with this tough cold weather:
- Protect yourself and those around you. Wear hats and gloves, stay dry and, stay out of the wind. Also check on children and the elderly regularly.
- Bring your pets inside or make sure animals have warm shelter when weather is predicted to be below 40•F.
- Check your outside pipes. Cover those uninsulated pipes and have outside faucets drip to avoid breaking.
- Know your cold plants and cover sensitive plants with old sheets or burlap secured with clothespins. Avoid using plastic to cover plants.
