Good Morning Port Loring

Waking up this morning temperature were sitting at -2.3 C | 27.86 F I suspect there were a few folks that got quite cold through the night and into this morning, as the power was out for most the night. It finally came back on line at 10:00 AM this morning. My wife and I made out fine as we have wood heat as a back up if needed. Actually quite cozy in our home all night and this morning. So no real issues to speak of. All my life the one thing I have done is make sure we always have food in the house and a way of keeping warm. If you have them two elements you can make out for quite a spell if need be. I do have a generator as a back up, with the electrical all set up for it, but when it is cold outside it is hard to start. There again I keep it in the shop and if it is a dire emergency I could warm the shop up with the wood stove, which in turn would warm up the generator, which would make it start easily. Where there is a will, there is a way, they say. LOL. On another note with all the wind and blowing snow, Highway 522 is snow covered with a lot of icy sections throughout. Another good day to stay home. The sun is trying to show itself though. With that I am off for a muffin that my lovely wife made and a nice perked cup of coffee now that the power is back on. Have a great day! GW
