| Power's out - below zero temp on it's way My power just went out & my battery on my laptop probably won't last but an hr or so. It's 32 and the temps are suppose to fall throughout the day to below 0 with high winds 40-mph. The wind is already whipping around, but I'm shocked the power is already out. I rarely have outages, I called to report it about 10 mins ago & they said a good deal of my city is without power & that the estimate it will be 1 1/2hrs before it's up again. The worst part is I keep my house pretty cool - about 65 in here right now. I just hope it really is back up in an hr or so. I was going to bathe the yorkies. Roxy is just having a fit barking at everything today anyway because of the wind

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | Oh my gosh!! Is there anyone on here you can crash with? That sounds like a dangerous situation. If not, pull out the blankies and keep warm!!

| I'm glad the power is back on. I think I would raise that temp a little bit in case it goes out again.

| Glad the power is back. No power sounds like a good excuse for a whole bunch of yorkie-snuggling .

| So glad to hear your power came back on. I definetly agree, raise the temp. in the house a little bit just in case it goes back out again. Right before Christmas we had a terrible ice storm and we were out of power for 10 days.

| We had a 15 1/2 hour power outage last week due to the high winds. It went out at 1:30am and our furnace goes down to 63 at night. By the time we got up at 7:00am, the house was already down to 56 degrees. Power didn't come back on till 4:30pm when our house temp was 52 - brrrrrr. The outside temps were in the single digits, but it was at least sunny. We're bracing again cause teh 40-60mph winds are coming again tonight, but the temp is supposed to much colder.........
