At 4:42pm the wind chill temp is 12 above in Albuquerque. I spent part of the afternoon wrapping pipes with extra insulation and the water faucets outside. If you are in the DEEP FREEZE, yes for many of us it feels like we are in the freezer! Please make sure and wrap those outside faucets and any other pipes in danger of freezing. Open the doors to the cabinets of the kitchen and bathroom sinks. Let the faucets drip over night.

And make sure all those precious four legged loved ones are brought inside out of the cold!
Amen Rick, I didn’t even mention that, but I should not take for granted all would do that!I remember one place we lived a lady next door would leave her older dog outside year round, even in the COLD! UGH!
