It was all on TV over here.
I suppose the main problem will be home heating/cooking at this time
of year.
Unless people were prepared with camping style equipment.


I have a propane heater meant for camping, but the warnings about
opening the window to prevent CO death are so strong, the window ended
up bringing in more cold than the heater made heat.

Didn't know what to do.


Try and get a carbon monoxide alarm if it's not too late. Others will
have thought of this.
Your probably OK just to cook food but not to leave permanently on.
