[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is so helpful. My dad is 80 and lives alone, about 45 mins from me. Last night, when the power went out because of the winter storm, his response was simply to get into bed and go to sleep. Yikes. I had offered for him to come over to our place ahead of the storm, but he had said nope, he wanted to stay put. The power came on at some point during the night, but I’m sitting here thinking, what if it hadn’t? [/quote] A few years ago the power was out in our area for over a week. It maybe got into the 50s in the house after all those days. You don’t die of hypothermia in your bed when the power goes out overnight![/quote]
