Reply to comment by jcolinr in Officials in Buffalo, New York, face questions about storm planning and response as harrowing accounts emerge of death and survival by Lazy-Lawfulness-6466

Setting up a living room blanket tent and filling large bottles with hot boiled water to send up heat can really help in such situations. Or going into a bathroom and turning on the hot water to max to generate steam. I know someone who made a blanket tent with hot boiled water and spent a couple days in there in a sleeping bag

Assuming they had gas stoves and water heaters that weren't affected by the storm. RIP to anyone who only have electric appliances.

There are a lot of plans that are great if you have the ability, but even those require the weather to work with you to some degree.
