Nothing out of the ordinary. After Hurricane Sandy, I had a backup generator installed, with a branch of our gas line. So I don’t even worry about losing power. In case I lose power or heat for any unthinkable reason, I have a pretty good collection of 3-season camping gear ready, including 3 camp stoves, 2 full 20-lb propane tanks and one half-full one, about 20 Sternos, two 5-lb cans of fuel, and I have a ton of clothes I can layer up in. And year-round regardless of weather, I keep my place stocked with a week’s worth of groceries, plus lots of canned soup for days when I don’t feel like cooking. No more rain or snow is expected here, just icy cold and wind. So I didn’t even salt my sidewalk today. But I have 60 pounds of salt left over from last year in my garage, sitting next to five snow shovels. It’s easy going.
