The wind is what kills. If you and pets can stay out of the wind, it’s not quite as bad. When you grew up in Fl. though, cold is cold. :-)
I spent two days before it got here wrapping pipes, getting the heat lamp on in the well house, getting a place made for the old dog, and other winterizing things. Since my husband can still only get around inside, it took me a little longer, but I got it done.
Just had our first hour long rolling blackout.
