Pipes PEOPLE We need to check on our neighbors, especially our elderly neighbors. We need to make sure they have all their comforts, plenty of food and to make sure their heat is working properly. If they were to lose power for some reason they need be able to call someone, maybe you, for assistance until the power is restored. PETS Your pets need some place really warm. Being outside in temperatures this extreme isn't good for your pet or even livestock for that matter. If, they can't be brought in, they'll need access to some form of shelter so that they may escape the wind and elements. They'll need warm bedding to lay on and plenty of fresh water. If it becomes frozen, refill the bowl with fresh water. They're affected by extreme cold temperatures just like you are.
