electric blankets do not help your water pipes from freezing up.
Earlier this year in January we got down to -8 f and anytime we get below +10 f I have to run space heaters in my laundry room and trickle water into the laundry tub. I use a small space heater under the kitchen cabinets to keep my dishwasher from freezing up. I also crank up my forced air furnace too. This house I am currently has a slab floor and very poor insulation. When I lived at another place with a basement I never had to worry about the pipes freezing as long as the furnace ran

Well the person that was intended for needs the heat to warm legs that could get burned easily.
The house we're in has very leaky windows and last night it dipped well below freezing again. Since I'm on call I'm in the far room that gets the least amount of air and needless to say it was pretty chilly. Woke up in a cold sweat.

We have electric tape around our water lines and it works very well. I dont have to run our tap in a small stream. There is warming electric tape you can use.

I completely understand. My company supports point-of-sale equipment so we are finally winding down from our crazy season.

But now the really fun part is about to begin. Jan 1st they are restructuring our service territories. I will be losing Ohio and Michigan but keeping Tennessee and Kentucky. I will be picking up Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, and about a third of North Carolina and Mississippi. I will be going from running 11 technicians to handling 18. Yay?
 
A Chemical plant in the county that I reside had a very large explosion and residents nearbye just thought it was ice breaking when it was a big explosion. The residents in the nearby area had a stay inside restriction to aviod smoke inhalation damage. 13 people were hospitalized as a result of the explosion. There was a large massive fire and black smoke infiltrated the surrounding area. The 911 crew closed a few routs until the smoke discipated and then restricions were lifted around 1:00 pm. The affected plant is currently under investigation and temporaraly closed.
