When it rains it pours

Power is down... looks like in a lot of places over the Bay Area according to the PG&E outage reports. All this rain and high winds finally caught up with us.

No ETA given by PG&E yet.

My APC UPC battery backup has about 2hrs to go before I also lose internet.

I guess I also get out of work early today? =/

EDIT: Just saw a 5000+ affected users outage in Foster City disappear from the outage map. No ETA was listed for that beforehand. So I guess they're not giving out ETAs today.

Hope you've gotten electricity back. If not, could you at least drive out to an area that has electricity so you can charge your UPC? Anyway, crossing fingers for you.

Electricity was back by 7 PM, so that was fine. I just forcibly missed 4 hours of work. :p

And the weather yesterday was not the kind you want to go outside anywhere in. :/

Glad to hear everything's fine now. I saw some videos. Yeah, that was definitely stay inside weather. At least there's still a bunch of things you can do even without the computer, like *gasp* read books. 😂

The problem with reading books is that you're really dependent on the weather as well if there's no electricity to provide light. =P

Ah ah ah, that's what candles are for. 😆
