:-( Yikes! I had that issues last week and I grow in DWC so my pumps weren't working - my heart goes out to you! But the good news is that I don't think it will affect them all that much... particularly in the stage they're in... if they were seedlings, I'd be moving them SOMEWHERE to make sure they stayed a little warmer. The cold is going to be the biggest problem... the lights, not so much... I would suggest looking around for a small battery powered generator that could run a small heater until the power comes back on - but they're probably all sold out around you and Amazon certainly won't come to the rescue with overnight delivery. I would at least bring them upstairs out of the basement if you can... going to be warmer up there than in an unfinished or half finished basement!
My best guess is that they'll be a little shocked and will need a day or two of warmth to fully recover - but you're not going to lose your grow unless it get below 32F in their room...
Good luck - this is a terrible storm the whole country is having to deal with!

ive had this happen to me before,, under 72 hrs without light and u wont notice at the end. try not to let your room go under 15 degrees celcious and it wont affect the root system.... top tips..... if you have a gas room heater that will work fine in there as long as you leave some air flow.. also maybe you have a camping heater? their small and cost only a few coins, and they will deffo raise the temps in there for small periods of time as they use tiny bottles of gas ( please dont set yourself on fire).

well, you are in bloom, so not too big of a deal except for the loss of energy. if before you have to worry about it causing bloom to start if you can't prevent long periods of uninterrupted darkness.
your plant will contract a bit and start to die. 3-5 days won't kill it but it's also probably more susceptible to mold and infection the longer it goes without light too.
stop eating for a few days and see how your body does, lol... similar but different. we get energy and nutrients from eating. plant gets energy from light and nutrients from fertilizers... can't do much with those nutrients if it also is not getting the energy to make building blocks for new cells (growth). ... can't maintain what it has (contraction/death)

it will survive at the time ur power come back, no more than a day or two after that if ur pówer doesn't come back.
They are very healthy...if the media is not too dry and not too wet, they will be okay

Best you can do is keep it warm but your main priority should be your own safety. Can try n drap blankets n tarps over the tent to keep in some heat. Or move the plants to the main level or were you sleep as you heat the air.
Good Luck!

How to tell when buds are dry and it's time to start curing?When drying how do you tell when it's time to start curing, ik from what I've read says the stem needs to snap, the outside of some of the buds feel dry but the stem isn't snapping it bends like it is almost going to snap. Is it safe to start curing? Been drying for 4-5 day's.
