The folks at Stormer’s Hardware opened on Christmas Day to provide plumbing supplies to customers with frozen pipes. The owner of Stormer’s said, “Open for a brief time Christmas Day and here is why.
“I saw way more people with busted lines today than I expected on the second morning of a deep freeze. Usually, the bulk of busted lines happen on the third morning, which is tomorrow. And no place with the supplies will be open, so I am going to open for a brief window from 2:30 to 5 p.m. for those in need.
“Things I DON’T have: Heat tapes/bulbs, gas/kerosene heaters, electric heaters; but I do have plenty of pipe fittings, some pipe, torches and propane.
“Merry Christmas, even if it is a difficult one.”

Comer said: I loved being Principal for a Day at Green Magnet Academy! This STEAM-focused elementary school is doing incredible things for its students and families, and I am beyond grateful for our partnership. Thank you to Knox County Schools Partners in Education Foundation for making this event come to life – I hope that fellow community and business leaders left their schools with a firm commitment to invest in and support our public schools in whatever ways we can.”
