It took 4 days for our democrat governor northam to declare a state of emergency. 50 miles or so of interstate 95 was shut down in both directions for over a day with thousands of people stranded with no food or water, running out of gas trying to stay warm. we are lucky that nobody froze to death in 19 degree temps. My husband and i are out working sick trying to cut trees off roads and dig people out. Making sure the elderly that we know have heat and food. Those people could care less if we are sick, they are thrilled that someone is there to help them. Just please keep sending prayers that the power crews can get power restored before it gets down to 10 degrees tonight.

I will pray for you, your daughters and husband and those affected.

There are some ways to possibly create make-shift heaters that do not require electricity. They might not heat an entire house, but might warm up a room. Lots of videos on YouTube how to make them with possible household items you may have just in case.
