I assume many without power today here. How much did you get?

So it looks dead here, so I can only assume many without power or just cleaning up. We got 2.5-3". How much did you get.

Never lost power, but it flickered 3 times. Did have to go out about once an hour to clean the snow off the satalite dish.

A bunch of tree limbs fell all around my house, and the lights flickered a few times like yours but nothing major. At first it seemed like it was going to be a bad scene though. Looks like we got 4 or 5 inches of slushy snow.

Ya 4-5 " of slush & no power since 9PM last night.
I'm the only one around with heat, fridge, some lights & TV
Generators FTW

We got maybe 3", but according to Weather Channel, Concord got 20".

Tom

we got 0 lol still like 50 out here

I hope this all melts, I need more time to procrastinate about riding my mountain bike before winter.

4-5 inches and melting which is good because i dont like snow until those guys come around! Never lost power once! Almost all of Wilmington did though. A few limbs fell in the yard close to the car tent... I was scared all night!

About 4" here. Never lost power, just some flickering. Had some limbs come down, one went through my car port's roof. Luckily its full of junk LOL.

Poor Crovo must be in a cherry picker somewhere fixing lines tonight.

Overtime

9 inches of snow at my house, my parents house 2 miles away and significantly higher elevation got all of a foot or more. No power loss, i expected it, but didn't happen

Doug

In Canterbury we got about 18 inches.

It's now about four with the melting. Put the Snow Blower on the tractor in record time.

Drove home from Manchester last night and it took me over an hour. The power flashes were amazing. It was like you see in the tornado videos. Bright white flashes in the distance then the area near the flash goes dark. Then it flashes again the lights come back on and then flashes and they go out. Trees down in the road or leaning into the road.

I didn't get out unscathed though. I now need to find a grill and a header panel for my Lincoln. A tree branch fell in the road and I ended up going through it at 20 mph. Didn't even see it until it was too late. It was at headlight height and I got lucky that it only broke the grill and not the headlights. Soo glad I have a winter beater.

About an inch of slush in RI. We didn't lose power, but a small branch fell in the back yard.

Aren't we all!

18 inches beats the shit out of anyone around me! Glad it has gone down substantially. Good luck with the Lincoln parts. I'll keep my eye at if I go to any JYs before you find em!

It was about 65 degrees and sunny here yesterday.

Glad you all can joke......I did with Irene

But this is a total SUCK!

Boo!

feel ya own the work issue.... booooooo! .......... just spent 13 hours of non stop towing.......

60HRs & counting
Lost Sat night around 10PM
Went to work 1/2 day yesterday & came home to rebuild the carb on the generator.
It started hunting & I wanted to get it back up 100% in the warm daylight.
Kids have had 2 days off from school.
Dont feel right leaving them with a running generator although Matt has it down now.
This generator was new in 1999 & has been working it's ballz off so far (only 3800W).
Not really roughing it tho....compared to the neighbors (some have relocated for now)
Natl Grid rep said they have no idea when we'll be back up
Someone said late Thurday.
Think I may set the house up with a big dog generator after this....
THAT should ensure this never happens again.

I can't tell if your joking or not...LOL... they have a battery like a car...

15 freakin inches. Power went out Sat night, just came back on around 11 today. Mother nature you dirty bitch.

slushy mess on the grass but nothing stuck on the streets. I never lost power but was ready with a generator. The last storm killed my power for over three days. Went out to springfield to pick my mother in law and grandmother. They have no power. Looks like a freakin war zone out there. Tree branches and wires down everywhere.

I'm finally home from work from seven o clock YESTERDAY morning...

I'm going to freakin bed!

*yawn*

...I have 's...

National Grid restored my power in just over 76HRS from when the lights went out
I'm glad the working conditions were better then usual for them (no -20deg wind blown snowy days/nights)
I'd have to give them a high mark for this response as there was a TON of work to be done before flipping the switch.

One of the lineman did have a beef with management..something about not being allowed out on Sundays for double time.
Good luck with that.

Springfield is a mess. I had to return a car to another funeral home yesterday and it is batshit nuts over there. Even worse than after the tornado.

Still nada over here
