So- I lost power at 4 am Monday morning and did not get it back until Wednesday around 2 pm. I live in a condo complex with 9 buildings, 14 condos to a building. Pipes froze all over our complex. My building got hit the worst. Somehow, my condo was one of only 3 in our building that did not have a pipe burst.
All the water was turned off on Wednesday and we've been told that they have no idea when we will get water turned back on.
I've been helping neighbors pull up soaked carpets and pads, take out ruined furniture and clothes, etc..
One of my best friends is a hotel manager and I will be showering there or at my gym in the morning for the foreseeable future. Two of the teachers in my building have told me to bring them any of my laundry and they will wash it.
I know even without power for a couple of days and no water for however long, I was incredibly lucky.
