This was well written. Sounds like he had less than 24 hours without power but turned the story into a doomsday journal entry.
His note about cell phone towers losing power was scary. Never really thought about that. I usually assume the phones will keep working as long as we can charge them, but I suppose the towers need some juice too.
In our small city, one power line blew down last week and 1/4 of the city was without power for about 6 hours.
I'm baffled at the lack of redundancy.
I have more redundancy behind my customers' blogs about their dogs than it appears our city has for keeping electricity flowing to 10K people.
Life without power will be hard to survive. And I fear my neighbors much more than my food spoiling.
