NE TN, we weren't affected, but temps are varying wildly.
Bring on the snow is what I say
, 5500 watt generator on hand, lots of fuel, and a new Jeep lol.
Only reason I bought the generator was for the tank. I have a lot (as we all do) invested in my set up so I suggest if you can swing it, that everyone buys a generator.
Power outage for any length of time = something dying, guaranteed.
I have a generator also.....actually bought it before the SW tanks, BUT did have FW....I also have 2 inverters....One small one that works off a cigarette lighter in the car, and a bigger one that works off a car battery....
One night we lost power, and after 3 hours I started panicking....so got the husband up....we hooked up the generator....ran all the cords....turned it on
AND
DUHHHHH The power came on.....LOL....BUT it was a blown transformer so who knew how long that could take to fix
just having the generator gives me a little peace of mind :)

I have been tracking the stuff I bought, new lights and such...which should have arrived today, now is saying tomorrow.
The turtle grass and copepod/amphipods are not yet shipped due to bad weather, thank goodness. I was afraid it would be arriving DOA.
I know this sounds crazy, but it seems that if you have a generator, you will never need it. I keep telling myself I need to get one.
