Irene has come and gone, well, sort of gone. We lost power 11 AM Saturday. Now 11 AM Tuesday and still now power. Fortunately we've a generator and are able to run the refrigerators, make coffee, etc. Sadly, no power to pumps that allow furnace to make how water. Therefore no hot showers. NOT GOOD. BB definitely NOT happy.
As with most hurricanes once the storm passes the weather is lovely.
Various theories about when power will be restored are circulating ranging from last night by 8 PM (clearly that didn't happen) to by 4 PM next Saturday (the electric company clearly has figured out how to deal with the MA law that requires them to give an estimate). About 1/3 of the town is without power. There is power a couple of blocks from here. I'm hopeful that we'll have power sometime today as there is a crew working nearby.
Lost TV and internet service about 8 PM Saturday. It returned today at 11 AM. That's a step forward.
Some photos and videos of the storm such as it was.
