Bitterly cold air will filter into the region beginning Friday night and lasting into next week.
If we have a snowpack Sunday night into early next week, then the chances of single digit lows will increase.
Friday night lows will dip into the teens and twenties.
Saturday night lows will dip into the teens.
Sunday and Monday night lows will dip into the single digits.
Tuesday night lows will dip into the single digits and teens.
This is pipe busting cold. Now is the time to prepare for the cold temperatures.
PREVENT FROZEN PIPES
- Set home thermostats above 55 degrees during cold weather.
- Drip cold water in farthest faucet from your main valve. Moving water keeps pipes from freezing.
- Find shut off valves for emergencies.
- Insulate pipes in unheated areas.
- Open cupboards and vanities to warm pipes.
- Close inside valves that control the water supply.
- Open the outside spigots to allow to drain water out.
- Keep outsides valve open so water remaining in the pipe can expand without causing a break.
- When freezing weather is coming, turn off water to outside spigots and drain all water from the line.
Remember, so not use extension cords with space heaters.
