19 Degrees! Cover your spigots, keep a drip going.

The forecasted low for Sunday night (12/21/08) is 19 degrees!  When it gets that cold, we have to worry about frozen pipes.

Two important things to do. First, cover your outdoor spigots, as seen in the photo.  This cover came from Home Depot.

Second, keep a faucet dripping slowly all night.  Only one faucet is needed.  If water does start to freeze in your pipes, it will expand and without this "leak" it could burst a pipe.  What a mess!
