Has anyone seen any out working? (other than the staging area) - My block is only one down and everyone around our block has power.. I've used the text notification system and it keeps saying they do not show an outage for my address..

Usually, if you are a small pocket of being out of power. You are fricked. They work to get the big pockets back in first. They are working today. Got my power back 30 minutes ago

unfortunately, that might be really bad, it would be better if your whole neighborhood was out of power

My office is in Gretna. We have a generator that runs the building. On my way in they had a parade of trucks heading down BC Hwy.

They had a lot of damage around the Sonic. I assume they will be down for a while. My secretary lives in the apartments across the street. Her landlord told her not to expect power any time soon. She's driving back from Houston.

Thanks, I'm closer to Lapalco but I'm sure my apt won't be up anytime soon either. I'm still trying to figure out how to get back there from Prairieville.

Old Jefferson Anyone?

I'm near Oschner and I heard they were running on their generator, not sure if true. But if so, I hope I'm on their grid.

I just saw about 10 trucks heading over the luling bridge towards the west bank.

double0, call and tell them about the outage if you havent. that way they at least know you are out of power.
