Protect People, Pets, Pipes, and Plants from Cold Weather! People - Minimize time outdoors. Prepare for power outages. Check on elderly and other vulnerable people to make sure they are okay. Pets - Keep your pets warm, dry, and indoors as much as possible. Ensure their food and water does not freeze. Limit outside time and keep them bundled up. Pipes - Insulate pipes if possible. Open up sink cabinets to expose pipes to heated air. Disconnect hoses and turn off water to sprinklers. Plants - Know their temperature thresholds. If possible, cover them before the cold weather sets in to help retain some heat. For more information, visit our social media pages at Facebook and X pages or listen to a NOAA Weather Radio. Stay weather aware!
