In Fort Worth (Richland Hills) TX we were pretty much homebound for almost a week but never lost power. We were part of the storm in 2021 where people died because the power grid could not stand up to the demand. Luckily we were able to spend a few nights with Lynda's son and family in their spare bedroom, us and 2 dogs. I bought a generator after the fact in 2021; it has sat in the garage since then, with a tank of gas with gas conditioner. Amazingly it started right up so I got everything situated anticipating a repeat of 2021 but as I mentioned we never lost power. The only ones who were without power this time as far as I know were due to lines being down because of tree limbs and/or ice. Today we are forecast for 74 degrees. But, February is not over.
