I was like Diana - 32hrs of no power, I was like Raf and said i would check in the morning - everything lived in the end but only due heating water on the gas stove help bring the temp back up and adding a large 600watt power inverter that i hooked up to my truck's battery - got a 100ft extension cord - plugged in both heaters and one power head that was lifted higher so it was blowing air and water. Left the truck running for about 24hrs to keep the tank running (it would drain the battery after about 2 hours if not running) A tank of gas and that inverter saved my bacon in the end. Sorry to those that had losses and i would be more than willing aswell to donate to anyone that is in need. Hope tonights storm doesn't hit as hard although i have heard westview has lost power already this evening. Lets hope it all goes well
Cheers
Rich
