Anyone here from the northeast (USA) and lose power? I lost power sometime after 5 PM Friday March 2, and got power back Monday March 5, a little after 4 PM. Really thinking about getting a whole house power generator. With no heat and hot water those 3 and a half days were no fun. Not to mention no TV or Internet (I do not own a laptop, tablet, or smartphone). I do use a UPS for my TVs and desktop computers, but that only gives me 30-60 minutes of use.
Worsts part is now we might get a foot of heavy wet snow dumped on us tomorrow and into Thursday. Hopefully all the trees that are going to come down did already during the first storm (3" of rain in less than 24 hours with tropical storm strength winds).
Last time I lost power this long was 2012 during a Nor'easter that dumped about a foot of snow.
