Duck duck shite frick. Heard a boom and we're without power on Wylie (off Kenilworth). 6 days to fix it and they can't even keep it on for 24 hours. I drove around but didn't see any trucks working, so I don't think it was intentional. Of course I picked up my generator this morning. At least it's ready to pull back out and fire up.

Still out at Old Hammond and Brentwood. In 2 days they’ve managed to move the tree, move the car and set one new pole. Who knows when it will be restored at this pace

We got power back Wednesday night and I thought we were on that same substation.



I think you are. Our end of the station had major damage but it’s fixed and we got power back two hours ago!!

Doesn't matter. Priorities are feeder lines going to hospitals, nursing homes, emergency responders, etc.
These have all been addressed at this point in the BR area.

The maps indicated crews would likely restore power on Sunday to areas expanding out from hospitals and other critical infrastructure that were already restored by Saturday morning.


WWL story from this weekend on restoration time.
