Northeastern U.S. Members Be Safe.

Im glad you are safe and i hope all of your critters can survive this. I used to breed boas and one year our power went out for 5 days due to an ice storm and i came home from work and found all of my boas upside down and i thought they were all dead until i saw one of my babies move a little so i rushed them in the living room where we lit a kerosene heater and they all slowly started flipping back over as they warmed up and i didn't lose a single snake. I felt so blessed because i had hypos, hogg island boas, dumerils, and some very nice red tail boas that were possible het albino.i would have never thought that 8 or 9 hours without heat could have killed my snakes but if i wouldn't have got home when i did they would have been gone.

Glad you and your snakes are all good, Shannon.

I remember last year the tornado hit our place, trashed the yard, knocked down 70+ trees, uprooted the neighbors houses, sent someones car into our front yard.. was lucky to be alive, with almost no damage to our house/cars.. All the power was out for over a week. The problem that time was it was TOO hot, the problem was keeping the snakes COOL. Hit like 95 degrees inside at times. So I know what it's like. Glad it wasn't worse, good luck with the days without power, it's a bitch.

Sorry to hear about any damage, but glad to hear all people and animals are alright!

I heard from sirtalis01(Julio). He is fine and so are his snake. He said he never lost power and his snakes are in brumation.

Yeah, I already posted that ^^^ a while back, but it was a different thread. This subject was also in the "so quiet" thread.

Thing is, a lot places didn't get power restored, or much of any recovery, before this winter storm happened w/high winds again. Only now, people still without power are freezin' their butts off.

Actually, things are warming up a bit according to your forecast. I think you saw sleet instead of snow because it's warming up.

This has been a tough couple of weeks. Friends and family of mine have lost so much in this storm.
Thanks for everyone's concern.
