How is most of BR still with power? In the past we would have all been done for.

The eye isn't quite here yet. I'd hold off on praise until then. 
But I agree, I'm shocked so many people are still up.

I imagine the rebuilt lines from 2008 are constructed better than they were before.

Its because Isaac is weakening and won't produce half the gust that Gustav did also.

I wouldn't bank on the underground lines. It is overhead somewhere. Plus, it always isn't a branch or broken poles that causes an outage.

Underground where I am too and been out for about 3 hours now.

Mine finally went out about an hour ago. Who has had theirs come back on? I don't feel like fooling with my big generator now. Think I'll wait awhile and cross fingers.

I'm amazed that I still have power. It's going pretty hard outside. I've turned into an information hub right now. I have people in 6 parishes getting updates from me right now lol

Gustav took out most of the week trees 4 years ago is my theory.
