Party, party, party, just kidding, that is definitely not it. Pets.

Make sure you take care of your pets, pipes, plants,
and people. I've got three of the four covered plants.
They're not safe with me. No matter what time or
season of the year it is, we are under a
winter storm watch. It's in effect until Monday. According to
Brad Pinovitch. She said, the biggest concern is going to
be ice, and some areas are going to see up
(02:13):
to twelve hours straight of freezing grain and sleet. Don't
be the person that tries to go out there and
see the scenery. It's not safe. Stay indoors where it's
nice and warm. Make sure you cover your pipes up.
I was going through the list of things of how
to prepare. You want to make sure you fill up
your tires with air, to the factory settings, get the
gas you need, get water and food that will last
(02:35):
you for about a week. And I learned something about
my house yesterday. I did not know at all the
whole time I've lived there, and it's embarrassing, but I
hope this helps you. If you didn't know, I have
gas logs, and when the power went out, I didn't
realize that my gas logs still work because I use
a light switch. I don't know why to turn it
off and on. And my dad let me know that
(02:56):
my gas logs still work if my power goes out.
So if you didn't know, now you know. They say
open your sink cabinets overnight to allow warm air to
circulate in so that keep sure pipes warm, and also
make sure all the members of your house know the
location of.
