We've been getting lots of freezing rain. I hope the power doesn't get knocked off. I remember the power being off for several days during a few winter storms when I was little. My mother would actually cook on our wood stove. Yeah, I know it sounds quaint, but it sucked not being able to flush the toilet or take a shower.
