Here in Michigan we have an ice storm nearly every year. And every few years we get an ice storm that’s epic. We also have some impressive snow storms and periods of extremely cold weather. Mr. Comfortable and I were, we thought, well prepared for winter events until he was in the middle of his cancer treatments. The actual temperature was -15 degrees F and with the wind chill the cold was utterly bone chilling. Our furnace died on the first night of that cold snap. And that’s when I discovered that our winter storm preparedness plan needed some work!

Good post! It has been a few weeks since we have had a storm but I am sure we are in for more before winter is done!

Thank you. We get snowstorms every year and some ice but every few years we get an epic ice storm. No power (we have the generator) and no one can move for days!

Thank you! It was quite an experience but now I have plans in place if one of us is really ill and can’t be moved.
