Yeah at least I have a gas fireplace in the living room. And I stole mike v's generator Sunday night and got the fridges plugged in before I lost the food.

Went out around 10 PM Friday night and got it back around 6 PM last night. House dropped to 40.
Once the hype calms down I will start looking for a generator, my part of town is always last to get power back.

Got damn cold down to 34 sunday morning. my neighbor came over and shared his gen a few hours each day. note to self...buy a F#*^%#@ generator. never again.

You should try living in the "Ghetto" section...I'm very surprised we got it back already. Historically in 8 years I've lived there the average outage has been 4 days ..

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

I know, I keep telling myself the same thing...I never claimed to be intelligent.

I've only been in town for the last 2 storms, the hurricane and this one, but you got power back sooner than I did both times. The neighbors around here said its always several days.
I wonder if its simply that our town is low on NG's list?

I dont know if there is a priority list to speak of but we always seem to lose power, and when we do its for 2 days minimum. Talking to a few people around town Pembroke has been that way for quite some time now. I wont think about it again until the next time, and I kick myself in the ass for not getting a generator again..

My brother-in-law texted us that his power only came back on at 1:23 p.m. today, the 12th, and he lives on Wellington Circle in Pembroke.
