That's NOTHING! After the storms came through Saturday the gas stations that still had power raised their prices as much as 80 cents a gallon overnight. After the ice storm of 2003 I bought a whole house propane generator and decided I never wanted to be without power for two weeks again. We've been on the generator since Saturday, however with a full propane tank and the heavy load of the AC, I estimate we have about 8 days of propane left, so I might have to start rationing the power for the AC and fridge to daylight hours only. Only 40 miles away here at the office we never lost power. Strange the way they tie these power grids together.
