Powerless
Sunday, Mar 12, 2006 - Posted by Rich Miller Huge storm. Power has been out for hours. Battery is dead on laptop. Posting this with my Treo, but juice is low on that, too. Capitol Fax is looking iffy for Monday. UPDATE: This storm was gigantic. No idea when power will be restored. No damage near me, but the generating plant is offline as I write this and there’s apparently massive power infrastructure damage. From the reports I’m hearing on the radio, Springfield may be needing lots of help. UPDATE: One storm was bad enough. then a second blew through. Now we’re all waiting for a third storm that looks pretty darned ugly. It’s been a long night. Still no power where I am. Major kudos to WMAY radio for keeping us all up to date during what certainly appears to be the worst storm to hit this area in decades. UPDATE: Temperatures will reportedly drop 15-20 degrees with this last storm front. No heat because there’s no electricity. Joy… 3 am FINAL UPDATE: The last storm has passed. Still no power. I’m going to bed.
