According to the US National Weather Service Peachtree City Georgia, a strong cold front will move through starting Sunday, January 11 and bring widespread freezing temperatures to our area through Tuesday.
Temperatures are projected to drop low enough to threaten unprotected or non-winterized plumbing, so now’s the time to get ready!
Here are a few tips to help you prepare:
• Make sure outdoor plumbing is winterized by Sunday to prevent burst pipes.
• Check on vulnerable neighbors such as older adults who live alone.
• Bring pets indoors and limit their time outside.
• Bring in cold-sensitive plants or cover them.
Warming stations across the county will open when temperatures reach 35 degrees or below.
