Update 2.15.21 Power has been cycling for most of the day. Last outage was 7:00 PM. Will run generator for the rest of the night. At 5:37 AM I noticed the power went out. It was very cold - just stayed in bed. By 11:30 AM I decided to get the generator ready. Shortly about 12:00 PM the power was back on. Power went back down at 2:00 PM, got the generator running now. Most who have been paying the attention to the weather were aware that the temperature was going to be in the teens. In my neck of the woods it got as low as 10 degrees. Snow everywhere out side. First time for us since we moved here from Calif in 2012. I heard reports of issues with under frequency. and rolling power outages. Looks like it weather related. Keep in mind this is a dynamic situation and things are always changing (power stats)
