Car heater during Aurora

[EjectedCasings]

Pretty self explanatory. During an aurora and if the battery is in, you could crank up the heater to warm up. Also maybe turn on the car lights to scare off predators if they are too close. Thoughts?

I guess if the car was electric or a hybrid, then yes. But if the car uses a gasoline or diesel engine, then these heaters usually use the hot water of the running engine to provide the heat.

Well, I guess there's not much to stop you from starting the car, unless the fuel freezes. Even then it could be a part of the whole 'suspension of disbelief'. But it might be a little OP.

At that point there will be nothing stopping me from driving from the Dam to Maintenance Shed and back again during an aurora.... sure would beat walking that far among the super wolves 🙂
