It will probably be 3 or 4 days before power is restored at my mother's farm, but I've learned that there were no major trees down on her driveway and her thoughtful neighbor is planning to chainsaw some of the larger downfall into firewood for his stove. I'll check on her personally on Sunday but everything seems to be manageable.
So you clearly still have phone or cable service, or is your laptop transmitting to some satellite?
We have lots of big pine branches down around our house but no loss of electricity. I even managed to shovel off the slush from the walks and steps, and most of the parking lot before it freezes tonight.
