power outage
Woke up at 3AM to the sound of the generator running. Coldest night of the season. Not that it was that cold. Only down to 0 degrees. I don't know how long it had been running, but it went until some after 5am.
Times like that sure makes me feel good about installing a standby genny.

Ole Man Winter is kicking butt in New England today. 50 mph gusts expected Artic air. So I am preping my Gen in anticipation of power outages.

We've had some folks without power in their homes for up to nine (9) days here in New Brunswick. The temps here are -20 C
