How to prepare for the freezing rain that's in the forecast for Chicago

The city of Chicago is expected to be hit with an ice storm and there are a few things you can do to prepare.

  • Let your faucets drip. Prolonged freezing temperatures can burst your home's pipes, but running a small amount of water is one way to keep that from happening.
