Ice not snow is expected and that's something that may knock out power.
I have natural gas heat but if the power goes, I may go bonkers without my
computers running. ^_^


Eh. I just go to bed when the power goes out. We have electric heat and it
gets cold! Does your gas heat stay on when the power goes out? When it
goes out at my mom's house, she loses her heat.


Modern gas furnaces wont work without electric. A water heater or old
gas fireplace will though.
