Down here in Miami Beach, Florida, [where it's in the high 70's, low
80's°F] there is a supermarket two blocks away from my home that is
open 24/7. They have their own generator to supply their electrical
needs when the power goes out, and in the past they have let me stick
some one gallon plastic milk jugs full of water in unused areas of their
freezers. You might just want to ask around to the shops, markets, and
stores that have generators and freezers if you could do the same thing.
Inside those walk-in freezers, it doesn't take but a short while before
the jugs are frozen solid. ~Dean.
==========================
If you lose power regularly you may want to invest in a small generator.
One just big enough to keep your tanks going plus a coffee pot and small
lamp......... ;-)

If power outages were a problem here I would definitely get a generator for
all the outdoor tanks and the 2 ponds we have.
