I heard about the bad winds and outages from a friend that runs a BJJ school up there. Hope you and your wife are OK.

Where do you live? We have over 125,000 without in my city and similar in the cities near hear. Saw a ton of trees downed today on houses and cars.

Still no power. Power company says it's the largest weather-related outage in Michigan's history. They won't even give an estimate of when the power will be back all the rumors are by the end of the weekend. It's getting pretty cold in my house. I am currently over at my parents house so I don't freeze, this evening I'm going to head back to my house two turn the water taps on a little so the pipes don't freeze and grab our cat so it doesn't freeze either. All of the stuff for my refrigerator is currently in the garage since it's about 30 degrees out at the moment

sadly the estimates are usually low
not enough guys to do the work needed....gonna come from other states/areas

IF a large area loses power and it is a bunch of trees all over lines it ends up being thousands of different jobs, each with safety risks and lots of paperwork for each...takes time

Rich Folk area of Eugene was out of power for 11 days after Ice storm this year

There has been several instance of looting here in the areas that were hit by tornadoes on monday. Its a good time to hunker down at home and practice making babies.
