I’m a little north of Baltimore and didn’t lose power this time, but many friends did and some are still out. I lost power for over a week last year after the hurricane so I have paid my dues, but it was not nearly as hot. My internet/cable has been out off and on since Monday and Comcast is telling me it will be spotty for the next week. I think this will be enough to push me to Verizon. The older neighborhood in Baltimore City in which I used to live looks like a bomb went off there. Trees with root balls over 20 feet in diameter are down on every street. Some of them have not been lifted off the wires yet so they have a long way to go.
