It seems very reasonable that each house will have its own relationship with the reliability of the electrical grid. Many of us live on towns with one feed, on 50 year old side streets with grand arching limbs as a deep forest canopy, a chain made entirely of weak links. Others live in multiple dwelling units 1400 feet from aggregate supply lines under the street. Any two random people from this fine state can have completely opposite experiences during a heavy winter storm like this, alas.
