We had power outages 2 days in a row here in southern Michigan and didn’t even have storms.
Clearly we need to close some more coal fired plants and raise some more windmills /s

Lets save the planet from ourselves from a nonexistent issue, then we can talk about those human lives being lost.
Politics fit's in there somewhere too I'm sure...

No power here since 4:00pm Friday, and it might be 4-5 days until we have it back. Fortunately, we have water and sewer, and it's "only" going to reach 94 degrees today. :)
Damage in this part of Ohio is worse than Hurricane Ike brought, with straight line winds of 100 mph.

Power outages predicted for the next several days in DC. If I were a liquor store owner, I’d be sheltering stock or doing the insurance paper work. Now.

Some residents in the affected areas, particularly between Chicago and Washington, were likely to see high temperatures in the 90s or even 100 on Sunday...Not even considered a warm day in these parts. If the temps hits 90 in the summer it is time for light jacket. Guess it is all in what you are used to.

Growing up in the 60s I remember very few people having air conditioning.
I guess thousands died and they just didn’t tell us about it.

Meanwhile, your honorable citizen CONED union guys are murmuring about a strike as, coincidentally, their contract expires in the dead of summer.
I wish they would, and then get fired.
