Thank you for all the info. I will pass it on to everybody I see. Unfortunately for me this is Ben hard. We are vegetarians and do not eat meat and most places that have food are serving meat

Finally getting a decent signal. Power is still out but on schedule to be back on by the 17th.

This my friends is what you call progress. Not on my street yet but they are working on the main lines that feed my street

Wow! These boys are moving fast! Power poles dropped off on my property. Line men all up and down the street. If we are lucky we might even see power tonight maybe tomorrow.

Hope that showers nice and hot and you and your family can rest a little easier soon.

These boys worked their asses off today. Got everything looking good. And BOOM! Something blew up down the street. I hope no one is hurt. 5 mins after explosion. Workers packed up and left. I guess that means no hot showers today.

It was probably a transformer. Those things can let go with quit a bang.

I can really relate to the frustration of seeing the power company get so close to getting the power restored, but then run out of daylight.

Hopefully they'll get you sorted out tomorrow.

Power is finally back on. Been a long couple of weeks.

Great news hope things can slowly get back to some normality for you all as been out of power that long I just can't comprehend.Best.

Can’t imagine what you are dealing with. In the 2011 tornadoes, we were without power for 9 days. But, we didn’t have damage. Nor the heat or flooding. Stay safe!
