November begins on Friday and I'm planning on the weather to turn sharply colder - followed by varying amounts of snow and ice.
I would prefer snow to ice as ice tends to bring power lines down and send my cars into ditches.
I have the following items in preparation:
- A heavy coat with gloves and hat
- 2 1/2 cords of firewood - two fireplaces
- Generator with a couple red jugs of fresh gasoline
- Books to read
- Batteries for flashlights
- Lots of candles and matches
- Warm female
- Ample amounts of beer and whiskey
If you all can think of anything else, please feel free to add it to this thread.

You are a little short on fire wood. We usually burn about 5 cords, I have 8 cords dry and ready to go.
Add tractor with blade and 4wd vehicle. You need to open the road for emergency vehicles.

You need to make sure your supplies include the makins for chili.

Under Armor Cold Gear shirts, pants, sweats and undies. This is incredible stuff. You can layer it up in the morning and un layer if the day warms up.
Wool socks of various thickness for you and your wife. In the wintertime, if my wife wants to cuddle at night, she has to have wool socks on her icey chunks posing as feet.
Have the ingredients in cans to make good soup if a power loss takes out your refrigerator/freezer.

2 1/2 cords of firewood - two fireplaces
Check out a fireplace
insert. Will improve your heating efficiency and produce much more heat (much, much more) than a standard fireplace.

I think you’ve got it covered, although my taste runs to well-aged single malts.
