Ugh, I am so sorry you are still without power. It's crazy how many whole trees took out power lines, not just limbs. I do hope it's not days until you get power. About a third of my town is without power, but mine flickered only a few times. We were super lucky. I was just glad to be able to get my work in. Whew. Today is cleanup day. There are lots of little branches in my yard, and I want to check the roof to make sure it's all good. I didn't hear any loud thuds, so hopefully all is well.We lost power as soon as I made that post.It’s horrible...I have no power and no cell signal.
Ok I’m done. I’m fine.I do have city water so that’s great. I’m going to run into a store and maybe get something like a crossword puzzle or something. If I can find the charger to my kindle that would be great...I can bring it to my daughter for charging and then I can read! If I get a good charge on my phone I can also listen to some audio books. I was caught off guard yesterday and not well prepared. Plus my phone is older and it runs out of charge quicker than it should.
@NYC Gardener I have solar lights and an outdoor grill as well. I love the solar lights. They work really well and keep a charge for several hours. I also have a gas stove, so I can light the burner manually if the power goes out.
This flood is manageable and not deadly, but it will require a lot of money from the budget for eliminating the consequences. Economics of Far East has suffered a lot because of covid, and the citizens didn't deserve a flood. This video doesn't show the whole damage to the city, though it shows a few different footages:
