There are still pockets or neighborhoods without power in Ward 5. PEPECO predicted the power by midnight this am. That definitely did not happen. Folks on my power grid will have one more day without power in 100 degree heat. The new prediction for power restoration is by midnight tomorrow. Fortunately I have had a cool place to stay. Not all of my neighbours have left their homes since Friday. I will spend the holiday tossing out all in freezer and fridge. #*/+@
Media reports this has been one of the worst of many recent storms. I heard that PEPCO has not increased the number of line men in many years to accommodate serving its customers whether for general service or an emergency. What are they doing with the money? I will certainly look into this. If true I will be organizing my neighbors to advocate against a rate increase for PEPCO.
