During these cold temperatures, protect the Four Ps: People, Pets, Pipes, and Plants.
- •Check on your loved ones and neighbors to ensure they have warm clothing, adequate food and water, and necessary medications.
- •Bring pets indoors. Provide them with warm bedding, food, and water. Never leave pets in vehicles during cold weather.
- •Let faucets drip slightly during extreme cold. Know where your main water shutoff valve is in case a pipe bursts.
- •Bring potted plants indoors or protect them with blankets.
- •Test heating systems, use space heaters safely by keeping flammable objects at least three feet away, and never use grills indoors.
- •Stay off frozen water, avoid downed power lines, and limit your time outside.
