Pittsburgh, PA (PRWEB) November 13, 2011 -- As Pittsburgh/Allegheny County and its five surrounding counties – Armstrong County, Beaver County, Butler County, Washington County, and Westmoreland County – gear up for winter, Gillece Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, and Electrical Services is advising that homeowners prepare their homes for the wintery, blustery season. According the Farmers’ Almanac online, the 2012 winter season is predicted to be unusually cold and stormy including a frigid climate, and lots of rain and snow. And worst of all, last year’s (2011) Farmers’ Almanac predictions did indeed come to fruition.
