NYE is no different to a 1 YO than any other night..... you'd take 8 hours without power and an icer vs straight rain. You're on City water and natural gas it's NBD.
Give props to @weatherwiz, he called this on the weak winds and everyone was treating him terribly calling him a little boy met and he needs to calm down. Very unfair.
I mean no offense....but you probably live in the most boring area weather-wise in MA. Too far from the ocean for gales and damage, not far enough inland for snow or ice storms. I guess you radiate well?
