Dang. I’m on the border of Orange and only lost power for about 4 hours. Sorry for you, that sucks.

Damn sorry to hear that. I haven’t heard when we’ll get power back here in Windsor county.

Perhaps ignorant question, but how do your pipes not freeze of your power is out?

Since they're not complaining about being cold I'm guessing they have a woodstove or something

If you are on a city water source you can leave your sinks trickling and you wont freeze up. If you are on a well and don't have an alternative heat source they can freeze but the temperature would have to be a little lower than they have been.

There is no guarantee that they won't when the power is out, but fortunately it wasn't that cold & I have a portable generator to keep heat in that area.
