    Yes, it warmed up over Christmas day (3F)! Unfortunately around 4:00pm our power went out for four and half hours. Wife had just finished dinner and we ate by candle light. The house got down to 62 by the time the power came on. Not too bad considering.

    LOL, 3° is a heat wave.

    I turn the heat down to 65° at night in the winter. It sure makes middle of the night bathroom breaks go much quicker.;)

    We've been watching the NE coverage and feeling fortunate. They've forecast an ice type event for us around New Years. Hopefully we don't send it your way. ;)

    My damage was too extensive for PDR alone. They "attempted" 100% PDR but in the end had to do some body work.
