Other corner of the country, but we've lost power for 7-10 days due to hurricanes.
Generator doesn't need to run 24/7 - we run ours a few hours at a shot to keep fridge cold and blow fans, etc.
Turn on generator, open fridge for food/drinks/etc, close fridge, run generator for 2 or so hours to chill everything back down, turn off generator. Not enough genny to run well pump or ac or anything big like that (5500/7500 peak) but toilet flushing is easy with a water source (rain collection, neighbors pool)
Dealing with extreme cold AND no power gets a lot trickier, unless you have a fireplace and a stock of wood.
