After the power goes out. There are a lot of people without power but it could have been a lot worse so maybe her power will be restored soon.

I have internet via portable WiFi, no power, no lights, no heat, but friend keeps a mechanism here which enables wifi (and cell phone) to charge. SO I'm back.

Crews allegedly working on local power situation.

The 4G here is spotty at best, and I guess my Covid shots didn't give me that 5G capability all the Q-nuts worry about .

About Sen. Kaine’s getting stuck on I-95 for more than 20 hours? I don’t want to blame the victim, and I’m glad he’s safe and appreciate how dedicated he is to attending an important meeting in DC, but I can’t imagine trying to drive from Richmond to DC on Monday. Per Gov. Northam, several tractor trailers jackknifed on I-95, and the state had resources headed to rescue people, but couldn’t get to them due to conditions. I hope but think it’s unlikely that the incoming Rethug governor will develop a better plan for disasters like this.
