THAT RAIN WE DIDN'T HAVE . . . ?
The rain came last night, riding along with a strong and prolonged storm. Lots of loud thunder cracks and more than a couple that seemed to vibrate my head as well as my eardrums. At a couple minutes before ten, the power went out and did not come back on until after 1 am, by which time I had fallen asleep.As far as I can tell this morning, part of a tree out front came down on the aerial warren of power lines at the intersection of Sargent Street and Riley. Last night, we could see that fire trucks had blocked off the 300 block of Riley - our block - and electric guys showed up with a cherry picker lift. A guy went up while it was still lightning to use a chainsaw; I am not certain I would do this.
A couple of circuits breakers tripped and not all the lights came back on, causing temporary panic among some denizens.
