When the power goes out due to a snow storm.
Staying warm is up most on my mind and when my gas heater also uses electric to keep us warm. I am lucky or forseeing by having a gas cooking range in my home. Now it has electric light function yet can be lite with a match. No water either during a power outage due to heavy snow.
Begin by collecting snow in large containers.
Get the match out and light the stove top place pan of snow on top. As the snow melts you will need to continue to add snow. The steam it creates will keep the house warm.
I get many pans full of snow and store them in tbe bath tub, as to not have to go out go often for snow. The snow this time kept us at 70° .
This time, We got our power back on in 6 hours from start time.
We have done up to 8 days before at 80° in the house. During a ice storm I used the ice that time to melt. We kept the house clean and warm from ice heated on the stove top.
Survival comes in many disguises.
The Snow Melts
Love to all
