I'm in el monte and it was pretty damn windy my garden is all messed up now. I had a black out for like 2-3 seconds? Then everything came back on and had power ever since. Probably because I have a Electric/Energy facility across the street from my house.

I'd hate to think what this does the the fridge. Big time
In some respects, it is nice that some cities have buried the power lines underground.

We got our power back last night around 2am.
It was pretty interesting not having any electricity for 3 whole days, but I'm glad that everything is back to normal now.

Yeah it sucks! I can't study because by the time I get back from class, its dark. They say power will be restored by 12am but I think that's BS, especially coming from Edison who said the power would be back for sure yesterday -_-

Wtf? I haven't traveled up the SGV area since last Wednesday but not having power for that long is ridiculous.
