I wear layers, my house can be anywhere between 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit, I used to keep it much warmer for my senior dogs but they both passed last year, so now I just bundle up to save on electric costs. I have a blanket warmer, it is a warmer that goes between your flat sheet and your blankets, I get home and turn it on, it warms the entire bed and mattress, then I turn it off when I go to bed. I live alone so it helps keep me warm and warms my feet up. When the power goes out, literally every winter between January and April, has been out for up to 13 days at a time. I get my sub zero sleeping bag out and I have a propane heater. I had hoped to have a wood stove this winter, didn't make it but am striving for next.
Edited to add: Fahrenheit

@capitalb5889 I live in the PNW but I am at the end of the grid in my little area/neighborhood, so when the power goes out from a storm, the people on my road are the last to get power back on, here you can live 1 mile from the main street and be considered "rural". If you live "rural", you are last to get power back, which means no water either because everyone is on a well. I live in a very "mild" climate zone, the last 20 years the weather has changed so much! We have had ice storms where the ice is 3-4 inches thick, down to negative 15 degrees, 24 inches of snow overnight and another 19 inches of snow the next day, conversely, in the summer we have had 112 degrees and been evacuated for wild fires. All of these "rare events" as they USED to call them are becoming all too commonplace. The area I live in USED to have highs maximum mid 90's, maximum a foot of snow over the course of the whole winter....anything outside of that was a considered a rare event, then they became events, now it is just winter or summer doing it's thing.
