Had a text saying power was restored around 730 this evening. That is false, so I had to resubmit a power outage, likely putting us to the back of the line.

Family & I are having a "camp out" by the wood stove, but pretty sure all the food we had prepped for the holiday weekend is going to be a total loss.

And I'm sure getting the $250 back for wasted food is like pulling teeth.

Put any food that needs to be refrigerated in bins and put it outside.

Exactly. I feel for this Redditor but right now the world is your refrigerator.

Our freezers luckily stay cold for over 24hrs, but we tried putting our refrigerated items outside & things froze within an hour. Oh well, it was worth the shot!

Same thing happened here. Power went out at around 6:20 pm after I had seen trucks all day along 201. I thought they were shifting some circuits or buses for those houses to be restored, but that was just a pipe dream. So I reported around 7pm, then within half an hour I got a call stating all was resolved. I called again and made sure I spoke to an operator to make it clear my street was down. No ETA, of course. I hope by late morning, or we'll be packing to travel to my daughter's for Yule.
