A Cold Day in Texas

We're expecting snow today, which according to forecasters is the earliest recorded instance of snow in this area. So much for global warming, huh?

Anyway, checked the outside faucets last night to make sure they were wrapped, which they weren't. I'm not worried about the other pipes, which are in the attic and are very well wrapped and are buried in blown-in insulation. Cas was at WM already, so I called and asked her to pick up some insulating wrap.

Seems like everyone else had the same idea.

So what to do? I came up with the ingenious plan of wrapping the faucets in plastic WM bags and then putting a coffee can over them to hold the wrap in place and keep it dry.

I didn't even use duct tape...
