Residents are encouraged to prepare for dropping temperatures by focusing on the 4 P’s:
- Pipes: Wrap and insulate pipes, especially exterior pipes and those on elevated structures.
- People: Dress in warm layers when outdoors and check on elderly or vulnerable family members and neighbors.
- Pets: If it’s too cold for people, it’s too cold for pets. Bring them indoors or ensure they have adequate warmth.
- Plants: Bring plants indoors or cover them to protect from freezing temperatures.
