Tru,
Does your power go on and off a lot or is this just an unusual thing? If it is off a lot during the Winter you may be ahead to get a generator that will carry what you need. Another option, is if you have a neighbor that has power tap into his. I did that a few years ago when we had the big snow and no power for three days. But that only happens around here about once every 10 years.
