> Number crunching : apologies to wingmen...
Talk about extenuating circumstances.... I hope your city infrastructures have been somewhat spared to facilitate repairs, and that no one lost his or her life. I'm pretty sure Hydro-Quebec and Hydro-Ontario will send (as they did last year in Georgia and Florida) a few hundred technicians to help you guys restore the power grid...

If needed, the Cajun Navy Hurricane Michael radio channel indicates ressources can be found on https://www.floridadisaster.org

and http://www.crowdrelief.net/HurricaneMichael

hurricane michael has knocked our power out.
last time took nearly month for restoration.

michael pulled no punches.
lots of rain and lot of wind.
trees down every where.
no water pressure.
we are still in a flood watch.
but i'm catching up on my sleep.

What footage I have seen, it does indeed look that way.

May your recovery from this adversity be swift, Phud. Likewise to all those impacted.

Not warm at all for Florida, especially if power isn't restored yet...

The last ice cream quart just before a hurricane is a promise the next one will fulfill, right ?

As long as none fell on your house during Michael's clean-up. The next ones you plant with your loved ones will have a special meaning, and will be harder to unroot than those older felled trees.

Nice to see you're managing, and that things are now going in the right direction. Hope your property itself wasn't too damaged by Michael !
