If you have to suffer through a natural disaster, a blizzard is a good one. The death rate is relatively low—the worst blizzard in American history, the “Great White Hurricane” of 1888, only claimed a total of 400 lives—and preparation is easy. As long as don’t do anything dumb and you’re not incredibly unlucky, you…

With temperatures dropping outside, our pipes are at an increased risk of freezing—especially in areas where freezing temperatures are unusual. Identifying and troubleshooting high-risk spots now can save you the hassle of a frozen pipe and—worse—the expense of fixing a burst one.
