correct. But I have plenty of warm cloths and a fireplace if I really need (havent used it in 10 years) We will be fine. Hopefully my neighbors will as well. If we dont get heat back on in a few hours ill probably try to go check on neighbors. There's a few elderly folks down the street.

careful with an unchecked fireplace. if the chimney hasn’t been cleaned out you could have a house sized fireplace

Fires can be extremely scary. The California Paradise fire from a few years back was a 50 MPH tidal wave of flame with the winds. If you did not just floor it, you were hosed.

Although I guess that remains to be seen if the snowstorm forecast for Saturday moves 50 miles north and becomes an ice storm instead

Hmm, I wonder what's in the exact middle of this pre-evacuation warning polygon...?

The one and only Rocky Flats, of course!

(It is not currently on fire, but people in the area should be ready to evacuate.)
