Power outage is still an issue whether you've got a heat pump or fuel furnace. Granted the heat pump uses more juice so you'd need a bigger backup generator if that's your thought.
I've been living with heat pumps the last 4 years, 100% AC coverage and 50% of our heating. No complaints or issues. We'd probably be 100% heat pump but that wasn't an reality for several reasons.
This is one of the reasons why I have the fireplace insert.
Wrong thread noob

I have been informed by @Full Trucker that I have indeed become more crotchety and jerk-like in recent years. So let this be my public apology to all of you. Well, most of you. Some of you, perhaps. I will be less of a jerk-face in the future, and will not correct kidwoo's incorrect use of...

I just bought a splitting axe for that reason. Bucked up a bunch of wood over the weekend and need to build an emergency stash.
Well, that and wire up a generator transfer switch so I could run my gas furnace.
How did you know??

autonomic nervous system identifies the need to poop and notifies the executive nervous system. Executive nervous system decides when to poop but autonomic has veto power, and we have all been there.
autoNONONOmic system, if you will.

The fruits been brewing slowly all afternoon. I just need some tacos with rice and beans to set things off.
Hit a patch of ice doing 35mph downhill on my road ride this afternoon. For a split second I thought I was about to have a very bad moment. Thankfully bike and rider stayed upright.
Did your autonomic nervous system issue a poop command?
Didn’t have that on my bingo card tonight. I imagine that, if he’s getting this same storm up north, Woo is having a snow induced meltdown today.
Dog 1 is deathly afraid of rain and has peed inside twice today, Dog 2 gives not a single fuck and was outside in a downpour norfling flowers. The house smells fantastic at the moment

It's been snowing all day but the bulk of the violence is down your way.
That won't keep pipes from freezing...
Never been that cold for that long that it was a risk.
not in my region chief.
…unless you get up every few hours to add wood.
We had a week this winter where it got sub 20F every night. For us that is very atypically cold. Our wood stove, which is our only source of heat*, was able to keep up, but it was a lot of work. Definitely looking at a mini-split install this summer.
*We have a couple of “Cadets,” but they’re about useless…
I have a single mini-split that heats the whole house. Heat being a relative term.
The beauty of a full basement is that it contains all the plumbing and never gets below 40 degrees no matter what it is doing outside or whether the heat is on upstairs.
