Went and picked up a kerosene heater and 5 gallons of fuel just in case. History in my neighborhood (Waldo) has shown me that power outages are common and can be caused by issues blocks away.

PSA to all livestock owners ahead of the snow/ice storm and extreme cold coming in. If you lose any livestock due to the weather PLEASE take a date stamped picture (Snapchat has filters that can help with this) and notify your local FSA office of the loss.
The Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP) provides benefits to producers who lose livestock above normal mortality to things such as extreme weather events. Learn more about the program here: https://www.fsa.usda.gov/sites/defau...ock_3_2024.pdf |

All y'all down there good luck and be safe. Bookmark the upcoming posts from you guys to go back to in December when they say 2025 is the warmest in record (globally).
Seeing they are putting that brine shit down. Have fun with that. Works well for snow and ice if it stays about freezing. Problem is, you won't. The snow and ice hits it and it helps melt it. Then, when it turns bitter cold to temperatures it doesn't work anymore, it turns to ice. Then snow piles on it. So you have a layer of ice with snow on it and the plows blow that shit everywhere. Busted the taillights out on my truck one time from the frozen snow and ice thrown on it. Hopefully power will stay on for you. Good luck everyone.

NWS downgraded the ice in Joco to less than .10 inches which is good and that's for the whole county. I'm up near the Wyco Joco border so I'm hoping for no ice. Getting prepared to potentially lose power anyway.
My wife starts a new (night shift) job Monday night, hoping the roads (they're all big well traveled roads on snow routes) are better then but ti's going to be coooold. My other worry is freezing pipes. Everything in my house except for the pipes to my shower and washing machine are pex, which does expand. I've never had an issue with freezing before even when it's gotten colder out and that was before replacement this year. Going to keep water dripping in the shower and a space heater by the connection in the washing machine (they opened the wall when they did my plumbing so I could do just that). It's just that if we lose power I have to go into my crawlspace to shut the water off to the house and I hate the crawl space because it looks like the basement in the house from the blair witch project. Good luck everyone, hopefully this is the worst it gets this winter, we always get one **** ass shitstorm every january it seems. Last edited by DrunkBassGuitar; 01-04-2025 at 09:52 AM.. |

Maybe grab a backup regulator when you are in the store next time. |

The lowest they projecting here is 22 tonight, so I’m not too concerned. My favorite is Thursday with a low of 29 and a high of 30.

Propane heater regulators can stop the flow of gas on the smaller emitters: On bigger units the pilot light heat probe (thermocoupler) can be a problem. Get a handheld blowtorch and heat it up 5-10 seconds before opening the gas valve and lighting the pilot light. I keep an extra termocoupler around for our house natty gas floor heater and a regulator hose for the portable in case the shop one acts up when the electricity goes out.

I appreciate the advice. It's been over 40 years since I've been around a kerosene heater. We used to have a couple when I was a teen back in the early to mid 80s.

I'm an idiot, completely misread KCLee and RClarks posts.
I'll leave the info up in case a dumbass like me 20 years ago needs to learn about this stuff. |
