It's funny how something in the Niagara Falls area can affect the rest of the state. We got our power back last night.
There were cars on the side of the road (out of gas) because electricity operates the pumps, no traffic lights, a few people were stuck in elevators, and radio & television stations went off the air periodically. There was a pizza parlor that was giving out free food last night because of lack of refrigeration (didn't have to cook).
Luckily, where I work we have back up generators so we were okay. However because of the blackout I was one of the staffers who were sent out on assignment to wakes during the blackout. There were quite a few of them that had wakes regardless or not having lights or air conditioning. mad cover funeral homes in the area suffer.
