I've got water, not for drinking, but good to shower in...and since we use natural gas, it's hot!

power is a little weird, kitchen light comes on and the a/c tries to run at 1/2 power, but the rest is still deader than a can of spam. some neighbors are already at full power, and it looks like the office will reopen, power or not by Monday morning.

There is a mandatory 7pm-7am curfew, and violators can go to jail if they don't watch it. That doesn't seem to stop the cars out and about at 6am.

worst storm for me, thus far... longest without power and water.

I think that andrew was worse, but I only helped with cleanup on that one... this is the worst I've weathered. I will evacuate on a cat2 now, incase it becomes a cat3 or worse.
