since I'm here and the answer is this simple...water is generally run into one's house with electricity. You can flush the toilet fine, you just have to have filled up your tub with water to use before the electricity went out.

Water run into a house by using electricity? Not in any place I've ever been. Do you recall ever seeing a standpipe or other water tower? Gravity flow, not electricity. . .
Well, I live in the northeast where ground water is quite plentiful. Basically everyone uses electricity to run water into their houses either from their own well via a well pump, or from the communal lake or pond water supply via the city treatment facility and a small pump in the basement. With foreknowlege of a large storm people will fill their tub with water to flush the toilet and other containers with potable water, since we can't get water into the house if the electricity goes out. So no, I do not recall ever seeing a standpipe or other water tower.

Yeah, fuck nature. It's sleeting in Atlanta. SLEETING. Ugh. God damn do I hate this time of year. I'm actually looking forward to the filthy, sweltering Atlanta summer. I can't wait to sit in traffic in my busted-ass Hyundai with no air conditioning and SWEAT.

I feel ya - it's only 65F here and there are even a few CLOUDS intermittently blocking the sun! I mean, they're small and they seem to be getting smaller, but still...
Why does your toilet not work when the power goes out?

Oh, that sucks. I once had a trip to NYC but made it ahead of the snow..getting home sucked but it was worth it.
I'm just outside Philly. I may be eating my words though- my best friend lives half a mile away and his power went out. That changes EVERYTHING.

I'M LOVING THIS!
Trudged to the bar last night, got drunk, came home and made snow ice cream..I'm within walking distance of friends and anything I need, and we're going to lounge around and watch movies and stuff all weekend. By the time it's over, this might be the biggest storm I've ever experienced.
