Holy moly! Do you have an alternative heating source? Make sure everything is charged up (cell phones, etc). Snow is bad, ice is way way worse!!! We purchased a propane heater last fall. It keeps the living room nice and toasty. We have it hooked up to the propane can for the grill. It’s come in handy more than once this year! I think we’re getting a 100 lb propane tank for next year.

We have a kerosene heater still in the box(and even kerosene). Although we probably should have read the directions before now. Another small propane heater and a propane stove. We’re tucked onto the back of a subdivision down a long, steep hill that would rival a lot in South Hills and when the power is lost we’re usually one of the last to be restored. Fortunately, when we got snowed in in 2011, we didn’t lose power and by the 4th day, all the neighbors got together and dug out the subdivision. ‘Just keeping our fingers crossed the ice doesn’t bring down any trees here.
