Real doom is on and you fuckers don't have it pinned for shame!
 Quoting: spencer


I have family members who live in northern Maine and have been hit by ice storms since last Friday and the power is out.

When u choose to live in a wintery region of N. America, u better b prepared. Mainers r tough people who r used to enduring the wind, rain, ice and snow and I'd assume most Canadians r cut from a similar cloth and r prepared to deal with extreme winter weather. I don't think this is real doom just yet...

Are you kidding me..Most people here should know to at least have an alternative heat source, and have been warned about long power outages too, but choose not to listen. Even in big cities like Toronto and London people don't even know how to keep a small apartment warm or eat without hydro..lol.

I do Hope that you have a fireplace? Some way to keep warm? After Sandy (Thank You Canadians for coming to help) it was cold here in NJ ( Not nearly as cold as it is for you in Canada), but I kept pots of water boiling on the (gas) stove...it really helped keep it a little warm....

I Hope your Power Comes Back on Very Very Soon.
 Quoting: LJ 1189406


That water ends up somewhere. Often in the insulation. A flower pot on the stove would warm without putting water into the house.

I was for 5 Days and it all worked out Fine. No problems with the "insulation". The front door opening and closing with people going in and out every once in a while solved that issue.

Well...

Toronto is a huge city, and it seems that more than 80% of the city has power on.

So, where is the doom?

People who don't have power may just move to the part of the city (80% of it) that has power.

No real doom here.
