That scenario nearly happened once; it was -20F and the power went out. Wife and I camped out in sleeping bags in front of the fireplace with candles illuminating the house, water trickling out of the faucets so the pipes wouldn't freeze. The power outage only lasted one night. The next day we were back to normal, no ashes from a burning forest, no cars floated onto our lawn from the hurricane, no cracks in the earth, no sinkholes, no dried-out lake beds.
Nevertheless, and kidding aside, forces of nature are not to be trifled with and I'm already looking forward to top-down weather come April after a hopefully mild winter.
Happy winter,
Larry (the bald eagle)
