Well, you weren't the only one.

Got up at 5am to got to work...
Power is flickering, so... got the generator ready.

Started clearing the yard, and broke a shear pin (plenty of spares... just a pain).

Clearing the yard and car... noticed the road had not been plowed.
Dirt road with snow way to deep to chance getting stuck and blocking the plow when it finally made it.

Called in.

Lights went off/on/off.

Started the generator... walked around to see if trees are down.
Sure enough. Some limbs from mine... but the neighbor lost a tree across the line.

Eversource and the plow finally got the basics back at around 10:40, just came in to dry off after finishing the work with the saw.
