this is likely due to local downed lines, there's not a statewide issue like in 2021

According to my local power company's website the area is covered in lots of little power outages instead of one big one like usual. I imagine that's going to keep the crews extra busy playing whack-a-mole all day.

I let my dogs out for their morning constitutional this morning when it was 20 degrees and they did all their normal stuff, poop, pee on a couple things, sniff around aimlessly, but it was like they were on fast forward. They needed to get a couple things sniffed at as quickly as they could and then ran back inside.
