“CHILL IN NEWPORT”Ice crystal patterns from a winter chill created this frosty forest on a car window in Newport early Wednesday morning. Weather forecasters say temperatures will drop even lower for the next few days, with a predicted low of 21 degrees tonight (Friday) and 26 degrees Saturday night. To keep water pipes from freezing and bursting, experts urge everyone to cover house foundation vents; take hoses off hose bibs; turn all faucets on to a steady trickle (the size of pencil lead); keep pump house lights on; and if leaving town, turn house water off and open hose bibs to drain out remaining water.
