The county highway has had to come by twice to shove 2 of my trees out of the roadway.
I have one down in the backyard and I fear I will have more down around the property.
It's been raining all day with temps at about 31 degrees.

All of us in the NW are under the gun. A couple members said no power in LaPorte, Starke, and Marshall counties. Our power is still on somehow, usually we are the first to go. Knock on wood. We are prepared if it does go out tho.

Played golf, walked the dog, etc. Took off for Lake Co. early Tuesday morning to get home before the snow started. |

Well, my shift at work yesterday wasn't near as bad as it could have been. A few accidents in the morning. Around noon we got busy with the power lines down and trees in the roadway. Bit NIPSCO and REMC were working hard and doing great. Our county highway department also had great response times to trees down.
Thankfully, we didn't lose power at home. I really need to get a generator. Just an added piece of mind I suppose.

Nothing short of a miracle that we never lost power, so far! Ice and snow have every branch and power line hanging low by us. The wind picked up last night, and I figured that was it. But it quit and all is well still.

Lost power 4x yesterday morning, it went out for good at 1pm. Packed the dog and some small things into the truck and headed to the house by Plymouth. Was there for less than 3 hours when the power went out there too. Genset kicked in and all was good. Power at both places came back on right around 7am today.

A buddy in Plymouth is still out. Restoration time is estimated for Monday 3pm. He is running off a big generator run by PTO on his tractor.

There are a lot of trees down along with utility poles and wires.
I never lost electric but many of my neighbors have and it will be another day or two till it gets restored.

It flickered here a few times today, went out for a full minute at 4:30 am, but cable/internet was out for a few hours.
