The main goal here isn't to "hold out" until power is restored, but to "hold out" until morning. Solar panels—if they're not covered in snow—will definitely provide us with some power. Whether it's a lot or a little depends on the weather, but in any case, our batteries will get some "recharge," and we'll at least have basic amenities. Understand more than just headlines.
