Powerless in Pennsylvania
Between 3 and 4 PM on Thursday, a powerful windstorm followed by a huge downpour came through our area. Trees fell onto powerlines. Power was lost to 200,000 homes. The storm lasted no more than 20 minutes. It predominantly affected 2 counties in our area. Many people felt it was a tornado. The weather people say no.
We have no power. We have no telephone. We have no internet. We have no A/C and it's in the nineties. I know it could be worse, way worse. Noone has lost their life. A few houses have had trees fall on them. We are not supposed to get our power back until Sunday night. Some say Tuesday! That will be 3, maybe 5 days, but it seems like forever. I have been desperate enough to go to Panera for breakfast to jump on their internet. Today, I am hanging out at my son and DIL's house, enjoying their internet, A/C and TV. (Yes, I 'm a TV lover.)
