We just had a ice storm and I had no electricity for 22 hours. I
was mostly unprepared and didn't like the experience at all.
What are you doing to prepare for this?
Thanks.

My house has a well and sump pump which are critical. First thing I did
when I bought the house 18 months ago was to buy a 6 kW gasoline powered
generator, and had an electrician install a 10 breaker panel in my basement
and an external outlet to connect the generator to the panel. I selected
the 10 most critical circuits to run on the generator, including the well
pump, the sump pump, the fridge, and my oil furnace. I also keep 10 gallons
of gas in the garage. Haven't had an outage yet, but I can sleep at night.
