No power at my place. Luckily my mom lives 3mi away so I stayed there last night and brought almost all of my perishable food over for them. My whole neighborhood is out of power, since prolly 5 last night. We have underground wiring too, so apparently where it goes above ground is fucked.

I don’t know if you’ll even be able to get to Ludlow. Even backroads are fucked hard here still.

Less than a mile from my house (covered bridge in the distance):

Killington base lodge (ski area):

Route 7, Brandon VT. Small white building in the center of the photo used to be against the brick building behind it. Its almost in Route 7 now.

National Grid is saying that its going to take days to get power back on in some of the hardest hit area, it may even go into the weekend in some rural areas. They are going to be restoring power to some customers today, but theres currently ~120,000 customers without it. They are goign to try to lest everyone know tommorow a rough timeline of when the powers goign to be back on

Schenectady/Albany and Saratoga were hardest hit by the storm in terms of the power grid.

I guess there looking at shutting off rotterdams water supply as well, due to some sewage back up

Also I don’t know how true it is ATM I need to look, but my mom just called me, there saying something about the Gilboa Dam letting out within the next hour

Awesome, had power throughout the storm, lost it, and may not get it back for a couple days FML
