We've been without power since 10 this morning and with the sun out, we opened the blinds in our living room to at least get some radiant heating until the sun sets. Went out about 3, got the truck cleared off so it can be driven once the plows come thru. We sat in the cab for about 20 minutes to get warmed up.

Mrs. Best has seen some social media posts from people asking where are the plows. Wondering if they're having workforce issues because of Covid.
