Pete,
We lost power at 4:00am Sunday and best guess is with half a million homes still without power it's going to be a while. There are crews here from Alabama and Georgia, I can't imagine what this state would have done if the storm came in as a cat 1 or 2.
Hopefully they have learned a lesson and will start keeping the trees cut back from the power lines. If some of that federal stimulus money was used to improve the power grid instead of lining the pockets of political cronies’ we all would have benefited.
Now we await all that water from Allan’s place to flow down thru the already overflowing Connecticut River. Life is good.
