Let's hope everybody is safe and does not take this storm too lightly. Here in Brooklyn our electrical wires are underground so a power outage is far less likely. Some parts of the country will surely be without electricity for many days.
Barry, our lines are underground also here in Michigan, but we lose power 4-5 times a year. The above ground wires are feeding your underground wires.
