Have you been watching the news?

Yes, so by now you're really over it.

I'm having so much fun.

Did I mention I had to throw a sheet of plastic over my run but being flat ain't good. So every1-2 hours I'm out there with brooms n stuff clearing snow off it.
Like I said, fun.

Crossing fingers you don't get any more snow !
We didn't lose power in my area but others in MA did since last Friday.
Now we are getting 9-15 inches of snow (depending on where you are) And windy !

last time i lost power at this place was a rare 2011 Oct ice storm. 3 days, not too bad. We have gas hot water and stove so food was easy, even though I do have a grill if I needed. I actually had forgot about being able to take a hot shower ! duh
But we heated Lobster pots full of water on the stove and placed them in the living room to heat up the room.

Sitting in my car, charging my phone, enjoying some warmth, and eating a bowl of soup made from everything from my fridge and freezer. Heated it on the grill.
Life is good.
Now, JCP&L, please, fix the power for this neighborhood!

I feel your pain...
Hurricane Sandy killed all power for over 3 weeks by me.
After 2 days, everyone bailed on me and the house.
Fortunately I know enough about electric wiring not to be dangerous.
I had a small 3000 kw generator for the sump pump which was not needed.
I had plenty of time.
I pulled the main breaker and panel (off grid) and rewired everything...
I was able to power the whole house more or less, or the water pump.
Except for showering in the dark, life was good, almost a vacation... did I mention the future ex wife bailed

Longest we've been without was during an ice storm. 13 days. We loose it often, for any where from a few hours to a few days at a time. Thankfully, we have a generator now, but I can't start it.

We lost power during the summer (in Texas heat) for 2 weeks once (hurricane mess)
I about DIED!

I hope it's restored today!
I feel your pain.

I was just behind a convoy of about 15 MetEd utility trucks heading east on I-78...keeping fingers crossed they were heading to your neck of the woods to help with power restoration!!!

I'm in NJ about 8 miles from the Delaware Water Gap. Guess you n I are in the same boat.

We were just far enough east not to get much of anything. A few inches that pretty much melted by suppertime. I've kayaked from PA to Jersey via the Delaware River at that location.

I put my chicks in the grow-out pen today (with their heat plate). They are just under 6 weeks old. It’s 34 degrees out there and are they under the heat plate? Nope! They’re all sleeping together on the floor across the other side of the coop! I guess they’re content and warm then!
