Wow.....very cool pictures, but strikes fear in Arkansans.
In 2001, we had 2 horrible ice storms 2 weeks apart, back to back. The first knocked out power in the northern half of the state for almost 2 days.
The second (ice up to 2" in diameter) knocked out power to most of the state for almost 10 days.
While my in-laws 20 miles away never lost power...ours was out for 8 days.
No heat, no light, no hot water, no power.
I learned a lesson.
The kerosene heater is stored inside, with 15 gallons of kerosene secured in a locker in the car-port. A full cord of firewood was delivered today...fireplace is clean & ready to go. Enough to heat the house for 2 weeks...even more with more kerosene.
The house my wife & I will build will have not only solar panels but a natural gas fired electrical generator.
Ice storms SUCK!
