Parts of Somersworth, Dover, Rochester (and I'm sure Madbury and Barrington included) are without power. My sister and mom still didn't have it as of late last night - and my sister is the one with a newborn
Hey Dare, thanks for the email the other day. I was able to collect/respond to email when I took my laptop and went to Massachusetts to show one of my listings. Thank goodness for laptops!!!
Nicole I believe is in Laconia, near Weir's Beach, and Lisa G, NH2008 and BF are in Hollis. The western portion of Rockingham Country was hit really hard. The roads have been fine (drivable) since Friday night, the biggest problem is of course the fallen and damaged trees...

By tomorrow we'll probably be able to guess by who hasn't posted since the storm
We're in Windham (off Londonderry Rd) and still without power since Thurs night. We've got 3 kids under 3 so we decided we need to be in a hotel room to keep the little guys warm. Any idea how fast PNHS works?

I talked to my son in Barrington a couple hours ago.They've been without power since Fri. and dont expect to have it restored for a couple more days. Thank god for gas appliances and wood heat.
i was reading in the local newspaper in NY that the governor stated that if ur power wasn't on today you should seriously consider leaving ur home to find some place with power to stay
from what i read... a lot of the grids were restore but branches will fall causing them to go out again...

Hotels are full and the whole state has only 6000 shelter beds. Some shelters are already closing because those towns have power back. Yet there are still 190,000 customers without power and the Gov says leave???? For where? Hawaii? And WHERE is our outgoing senator in all this? We are damn fortunate to have this warmer spell, but if we let up on shelters, aid, and restoration efforts and the weather changes, we'll still be finding frozen bodies in January.
i was wondering where people would go if they didn't have friends or family with power...
personally i went to my parents in NY on friday b/c when this same type of event transpired in buffalo a few yrs ago we were w/o power for over a week... and the original estimate had been 2-3 days. i told my landlord that she should do the same but she stayed. she has a wood stove tho so at least has heat and a way to cook.
I know it must be tough up there, but am very glad to begin seeing more of the familiar names popping back up! I'm continuing to check on the outage map - thanks for that- and praying for y'all to be safe and warm. We are back to mid to upper 70s this week. Wish I could will some of it to y'all for a couple of days to thaw everybody out! Please keep the reports coming as possible. Again, hope everyone is alright!!!
Wow I'm back in "civilization" with an internet connection Much of Londonderry has been restored, unfortunately our neighborhood is still in semi-darkness. The roar of generators (ours included) can be heard as I took the dog for a walk and to check in on people. We have limited power, water & heat, plus a couple of lights and the TV. No stove or microwave but the basics are covered. We've had people here each day/night who don't have power at home, and cooked on the grill for dinner. At least it's not terribly cold outside. A couple of years ago we had a similar storm and lost power for 3 or 4 days, then the temps plunged into single digits, resulting in lots of people with burst pipes, heating system freeze damage, etc. As of yesterday afternoon there were still several roads closed due to a HUGE amount of trees down throughout Derry/Londonderry/Windham/Pelham/Hudson. Hope people are staying warm and safe...
Val - Glad to see you're at least partially back to normal! Hope everyone gets their power back soon! How nice of you and your family to have others in, check on others, etc.....
