Been working graveyards for a week now. We've been getting the best of the best at night. Currently 4° with a real feel of -15°. KMA.
 
A balmy 8 here, wind chill around -15.
 
Heck it's still 16 here. Feeling toasty. Woodstove has the house at about 73 and have the fireplace in the living room turned on for good measure. Just finished up Christmas with the inlaws.

21 here feels like 8. Can’t remember when SC got this kind of weather in December! My old ass came in. Step son and friends are outside by the burn barrel. Hopefully burning those branches that fell today.
 
Power back on...
Still none for me. It's 7° currently here. Very afraid the traps in the crawlspace are toast. Both sets of gas logs going so we're not freezing but not looking good . Guess we will find out when we get power or it gets above freezing what all I've lost
 
Weather say 9 deg. Here with a wind chill in the -10deg range.

We lost power and internet a couple times yesterday, hopefully all the wind has sorted out the weak and dead trees and we are done for a few days.

Rolling around with Christmas cookies to give any lineman we see working in this awful weather.

Very fortunate to have a wood stove and a stocked woodbox on the porch.
 
7 degrees here this morning and woke up with no power. Gas logs are on, so not freezing. Gonna give it a couple hours and then bundle up and get generator fired up. This will get me heat in the pump house, water, lights.
 
Damn guys hope you all are ok. Its cold here. But not that cold!
 
No Backup generator?
Not here in the trailer park. Mom lives in my barndo now and I set that up yesterday morning. Then MINE went out 🤦‍♂️

I'll be calling Beeco when I get back from the ranch though
 
If anybody gets in a bind with no power and needing a place to stay, PM me. I have power (and a generator), and an extra fully furnished living space.

He also likes to work extra hard on cold days so watch out for the payback :laughing:
