After 33 hours, power came back at about 1am.

Yay! Hot Water! Refridgeration! Light! Charged Laptops! Internets!

Power’s down again. We’ve had about 95% uptime on the power grid this month…

Snow’s beautiful though, and it’s quiet enough to hear the tree branches breaking from the weight.

Update – This one was about 9:20 am to 1:30.

Update 2 – Down again at 4pm. There’s about 8″ of snow on the ground, and more forecast for the next 24 hours.

It’s snowing, I was just about to make cookies, when the power went out and we heard a boom in the distance.

I think we lost a power transformer somewhere upstream of us. (turns out that it was a branch on a line) Here we go again. The last time this happened, it was a 22 hour whole island thing. This time, hopefully a lot less.

There is phone and internet, but I’ll be turning off the net to save power on the UPS.

I <3 upses.

Update— Power is back @ 7pm, so 4 hours down. Might think about that generator that I saw at the hardware store….
Update 2 — Down again, @ 5am. Rose saw the room lit in a brilliant blue than orange light.  That was a transformer… And back up at 7:40.
