Power has been out for about an hour and a half [View all]

It's 33° outside here in Tahoe. After 3 days of massive wind and the snow being done, full Sunshine bluebird day, and the power goes off for no reason.

Liberty utilities is the worst. They raise our rates constantly, and they don't maintain shit.

I have a gas fireplace that I can take the front off and figure out how to light it manually. But for now I'm huddled under my blankets with my kitties hoping it'll come back on before I have to resort to that..

At least I have a gas stove too so if I have to I can still cook. Supposedly there window of time says 5:30 p.m. and it's been out since 11:00 a.m.

Have I mentioned how much I hate being cold? 🥶🥶😡
