Things you never want to see as a livestock owner. We will be prepping HARD this weekend. 😭❄️
**Worst Cold In At Least 6 Years**
Please take this seriously! The last time we had an arctic blast that was comparable with both the high and low temperature, wind chill, and length of extreme cold combined was late January 2019.
Remember to check up on the elderly. If you have an older car battery that struggled in this last arctic outbreak, get it changed BEFORE the extreme cold hits. If you have outdoor pets, plan to bring them inside. If you have pipes that are vulnerable to freezing, keep those cabinet doors open. Make sure to let the faucets drip early next week. If your tires are low, add air now. The tire pressure will drop 3-5 PSI on average between Saturday morning and Tuesday morning. Frostbite can occur in less than 15 minutes to exposed skin with the wind chill between -20 to -30.
