We got off easy after
Sunday's storms - we only lost power for ~12 hours and because we vigilantly didn't open the fridge didn't have to throw everything away the next day. I've talked to more than one person who were still without on Tuesday night and I came home this evening to find the power had blinked again with the rain that came through at 2 - off I go resetting clocks again.
Not sure whether it's just me, unusually severe weather,
crumbling infrastructure or some combination of these, but I've lived here ~15 years and it seems that it's only been in the past 2 that there have been multi-day power outages and unsafe water advisories/water restrictions.
Looking on the bright side, I had plenty of time to read and sew by lantern light. Photos/book reviews coming Real Soon Now, Really.
