(Atlantic) Frigid cold temperatures are forecast for later this week, coupled with high winds will send the wind chill values plummeting. The bone-chilling temperatures could lead to frozen water pipes inside homes and businesses.
Atlantic Municipal Utilities General Manager Steve Tjepkes says now is the time to prepare for the worse.
Tjepkes says if pipes freeze and break know ahead of time where to go to get the water shut off. Regarding controlling the inside temperature of your home, Tjepkes says to keep the thermostat the same as you would on a typical day.
