Winter's First Freeze

The National Weather Service is predicting a hard freeze tonight with a low of 28 degrees and a wind chill down in the low 20s or high teens. If you haven't protected your outside faucets and sensitive plants, today is the day to get it done. Consider leaving a slow drip at the faucet furthest from where water enters your house to prevent pipes from freezing. If you're stacking wood by your house, be sure to leave a 3-6 inch gap to keep insects from migrating from the wood to your house.
