Didn't have power on Hammond Hwy in Lakeview around 3 pm, so we got a hotel in the CBD. Hopefully some TDers are getting their power back.

Had to get our little 3 y/o to a place with a/c. Luckily haven't had to deal with any Decadence people. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Napoleon and St. Charles have power, but we are out a few blocks over on Milan. Looks like everything from Claiborne/I-10 to Napoleon is still in the dark.

Eta: Except for the McDonald's on Claiborne which remains a beacon of light and hope for the city

North side of Hammond? Sounds like we're neighbors.

Once entergy gets on the street they seem to build momentum and more people on than they did the day before.

I somehow never lost power over by Westwego city hall. Not sure I would believe the entergy power maps either. Just looked, and they said power lines are off on my street and all the streets around me

Still out near bonnabel and vets.....the wife and I were feeding our infant twins on the porch to get out of the stuffy house today when we saw an energy truck pass by. I told her we should have the girls make the saddest faces possible and maybe they would take pity on us.

What hotel are you staying at? I might need to book one if our power isn't back tmmrw. Been staying at my dads house since he has a generator, but my wife is going out of town this weekend and there is no way I'm staying out here with nothing to do on a rare free weekend.

Haven't seen any power on other than generator power in the riverside area of St. Charles from Napoleon to the Park. They said probably tomorrow. We'll see.

Still no power by Cleary and W. Metairie in Metry. By Cleary and W. Napoleon, they never lost power. Bastards.
