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.


Especially if the power cut lasts for weeks.

Can't see them fixing the subway in less than weeks.

Look into Monitor heater. They run on LPG, NG/ heating oil and kerosene. ~
90-95% efferent and no inside combustion gas venting.

Note some require a low power 120 VAC. Good idea to have an anual PMI but
will run for years without.
