In the shop
Yesterday was a so so day. Did some errands while it was 59F out. 4 hours later at 11 am it dropped to 46F and lost power. Went to the girls house just inside Ohio line since she has wood burner and has power

Work called me last night and said the shop had no power and to stay home today and be safe. It's a balmy 23F here today and winds finally stopped at 11pm last night. We did have 60mph+ winds too. 56,000 people without power in my county. Should be back on this morning power company says. Anyone else in Pennsylvania without power? Stay safe folks

NE Ohio, no power in our development since about 1:30PM yesterday. Large tree on an adjacent street toppled and took out the power lines. A crew was working on it, but they left at about 8PM. Finally broke down and fired up the generator to get the furnace going, but had to shut down for the night. Didn't see just how cold it was, but I'm guessing it got down in the 50s in the house. Looks like as of this morning the tree was removed, and there was a car from Ohio Edison there, but no trucks or crews. Really hope they can get the power back on today.

Southwest PA or 15 minutes from Ohio line
 
Windy here in So. NH.

ASPLUNDH has been cutting trees near service lines like madmen for the past few years. Unfortunately, our old, mostly untouched Colonial Era town looks like *^$^&$#@ now.
I have wood stove and gen if needed. Above 30F, I wont run it if power will be restored in a day. ......Though I should get that 3 year old gas out of there

Mine showed back on 1 hour ago. That was a lie. I'm staying alive here in Ohio and being in a 50F house without heat sucks

Yeah, can do that if it wasn't so dam cold today. Love my Weber charcoal grille
 
Duquesne Light Co. in Pittsburgh PA had more than 47,000 customers without power yesterday from the wind storm, and today they report 36,868 without power, and that does not take into consideration the West Penn Power customers currently without power.

We live about 3 miles south of Pittsburgh and our power never went out.

Here in Fulton County we still have power, thank goodness. I was helping a friend out that lives in rural Franklin (western edge) and the power blinked a couple times, but stayed on. Both of us are served by West Penn (First Star Energy).

Had trouble keeping the old truck on the road due to wind though!
 
Power went out here in Franklin county. For about two hours from 6pm to 8pm yesterday. Then no power again at around 1am this morning, power has been on since 3am though.

West Penn Power has been super quick to restore power.

Didn't feel the need to fire up the wood stove. Glad I didn't waste logs for only 2 hours of no power
 
Well, my power came back on at 1am yesterday. Nothing in my new as of last fall crosley fridge spoiled thank God.

I have a parts master kia/Hyundai app filter to cut and post from gf's 13' Santa Fe to c&p soon
 
There was 41,000 without power on the Upstate NY National Grid Outage Map page when I checked it yesterday afternoon.
