Scotty we got the power back on last night. Sort-of nice to watch TV without the generator background noise. The line crew was from your state and I spoke to one of the guys and he couldn't believe the number of people that have generators out here. His comment was it was difficult because none of the meters were turning.

Winds have died. Now the clean up begins. The snow is all gone and the yard work begins.
Most of my neighbours have generators so when the power does come on it is hard to tell.
I have a friend down the road who doesn't have one - I get him to call when he has power again.

We have an over-head fan and a light connected directly to the grid (Via a circuit breaker) so when the power comes on the fan turns so we know. Before that we went about three hours on the generator not knowing the power was back on!

I had a LED put above he transfer switch , I do have to look in the basement but at least I don't have to transfer the load to see if the power is back.
