Somebody flipped their car into the transformer in front of Wegman's on Lee Highway. Power is out for all the surrounding neighborhoods. Dominion says they expect the power back on between 3 and 5 AM, but take that with a grain of salt.

Holy shit, how much power does that thing use? It's just the type of thing the Climate Change Team of the Environment Department at the World Bank would worry about. ;)

had to leave my place too, once it got past 80 degrees in my condo without power. Would be helpful if anyone can post when they start getting power back. I live in the condos next to Weggies.
