You may want to pick one up if you can, they are pretty good to have around anyway. At the very least try to pick up a few battery powered airators (like people use in live wells) to help out with your livestock-they run on D batteries usually, so keep a lot of them on hand. We were out of power for 10 days and we were able to keep everybody alive with a couple of airators, minnimal feedings and water changes (fish got the bottled water, we just drank the warm beer, it seemed to work out well for everybody). Good luck, hopefully we will be spared this time. :nervous:
