Experienced an ice storm and power outage here in SC.
We waited 9 hours for the power to come back on, but could not risk going into the night with no power or heat. So, we went to a hotel for the night.
Adding to the list of needful things:
A nice efficient power generator.
A portable gas heater and a tank.
Get that propane stove up and running.
Take steps to get that solar power system going. We have trees on all sides, so the ones on the south are going to have to go.
A little sterno can stove.
It is nice to have events like this to both test your preparedness and get you going on the to-do list.
We are home now.
