The snow ain't so bad if you don't have kids, or lose power. The last icestorm we lost electric. Meaning no furnace or lights. But we didhave hot water. Luckily I had 2 of mom's old kerosene heaters and some kerosene in the shed. There is no warning of an ice storm. And you'd best have some food in the shelves and the freezer. Also luckily I own a 4X4 Pickup. We had no power for 3 days, and then again that night for 2 more days. Some folks were out for weeks. We were lucky.
And being a landlord, my wife calls maintenance too.
