WOW! Just WOW! I hope they all get power back soon. Nstar is all over the news doing damage control. I guess they don't want to be the next Unitel.

I also in NH and we were lucky. the power went off/on all night Thursday night but by the light of day it was working- thank GOD! We lost it for several days last year after the ice storm.

We need to buy a generator... I feel like such an ass not having one.

Looks like Unitl called in Canadian and out os state line workers right away which is good.

Hope everyone is up and running soon!

My MIL lives in our house in NH. She's 83 and very stubborn. Lost power Thursday night and just got it back around 7pm last night. She refused to leave. We also had a huge tree come down, missed our garage by about 10 feet, we were lucky.
