Propane VS Electric Heat

It's 70 degrees here this morning and we had a little rain over night.
I'm glad I have inside work planned today. I wouldn't want to be out in that mess.
The orchids I have stuffed in the palm trees outside seem to like it though, most of them are ready to bloom. :)
How cold does it have to get before you develop Frozen Chads?
 
Ordered propane last week Monday, the price was $2.44 a gallon. They delivered it on Thursday and the price was up to $4.08. Lucky me they gave me Monday's price. Tore out my oil furnace last year and installed a high efficiency LP furnace. Should have kept the oil furnace I guess!!
 
Best to have multiple sources. What's electric cost there? Any dual fuel or off peak rates?
I think we're at about $.14 right now. The off peak that our local POCO offers hardly pays anymore. Xcel has an off peak usage program but that can stink at times too because they nail you for any usage that isn't off peak.
