I think it is ironic that New Hampshire has the infrastructure and all the natural gas they need while Texas, where a big part of NG comes from was left flapping in the wind. I would have thought it would have been the other way around.
I am sort of a prepper so, I bought a generator and was ready for this 25 years ago. For the first 10 years or so I diligently changed the oil and regularly tested the generator. After that I got complacent and forgot about the generator. When I needed it this time, it would not start. Bad gas, old oil, and sitting in storage for years. Got it cleaned up and working again about the time the power came back on. Generators take a lot of regular maintenance. That means keeping the stored gas fresh as well. Having NG connected would be great as fuel would be one less thing to worry about.
Could never have enough batteries to last through a cold spell like this. A generator is the only sure way to have power.
