I didn't get home until after 10:00pm last night and I had no power in
my condo near South Square when I got in. Just now tried calling home
and my answering machine did not pick up, so I'm assuming that power has
still not been restored to the South Square area.

I lost power at 3:30 yesterday, it was still out when I left for work
this morning at 7am
Of course my neighbor who fronts Garrett has power - it is so
annoying!
