Another Texas freeze in forecast? Podcast has steps to protect your home.

Just saying “freeze” can make a Texan flinch.

But you can take steps to protect your home before temperatures drop.

And when a freeze happens, you can run water through your indoor faucets – hot and cold – before you go to sleep. Or you can let faucets drip from the cold and hot taps. Be sure to follow your local government’s instructions, which may limit water use.
