Warmer Temperatures Reduces Threat For Freezing Water Service Lines

UNDATED - Warmer temperatures are thawing the ground.

The cities of Waite Park, St. Cloud, St. Joseph, and Sauk Rapids have evaluated area frost depths and water temperatures.

They say frost should be out of the ground enough for residents to no longer have to run your water to prevent water lines from freezing.

You are encouraged to check the temperature of the water. If it is below 35 degrees, you should continue to let it run.

Ultimately, it's your decision when to turn the water off.
