That’s about when I lost power. We found out why when we looked out the window. Across the street, a giant tree fell down and took out all the wires. I imagine it won’t be back until sometime tomorrow, as the township has to come take care of the tree first before the power company can fix the line. I can’t even access the power company’s website to report the outage or check restoration times. It’s probably overloaded with customers. Even the phone line isn’t picking up! And thanks to corona, none of the usual places you could go to charge your electronics (Starbucks, etc) are open. Sucks!
