❄️ FRIGID TEMPERATURES THIS WEEKEND ❄️

Dangerously cold temperatures are headed our way this weekend. These conditions can cause serious problems for homes, vehicles, and personal safety if you’re not prepared.

Please take a few minutes to protect yourself and your property:

🏠 Protect Your Home
• Allow faucets to drip to help prevent frozen pipes
• Open cabinet doors to let warm air reach plumbing
• Ensure your furnace and space heaters are working properly
• Check on elderly neighbors and anyone without reliable heat

🚗 Protect Your Vehicle
• Make sure your vehicle is winter-ready and your battery is strong
• Keep your gas tank at least half full
• Carry a cold-weather emergency kit (blankets, charger, gloves)
• Give your vehicle extra time to warm up and use caution on icy roads

👤 Personal Safety
• Dress in layers and limit time outdoors
• Watch for signs of hypothermia and frostbite
• If travel isn’t necessary, stay home

We urge everyone to take these temperatures seriously. A little preparation now can prevent major problems later.

Stay warm. Stay safe.
