Just checking in after yesterday’s bomb cyclone. Do you have power? Internet?

Let us know your locale and what your situation is. I’ll start.

I’m in Kent. Never lost power, but don’t have internet. Lost internet at about 10:45 last night, so I’m running on cellular service via Mint/T-Mobile.

Let’s keep each other updated on restoration efforts here so we can see how things progress.

Issaquah. Lost power and internet at the same time. 6pm last night. Not sure when it will be back.

Same, now we have ETA as Monday

South Whidbey, still out but it's spotty around here. All the towns are fine.

Burien. Never lost power but did lose internet last night that wasn’t restored until mid day today. Thankfully it was back on in time for me to leave the office at 2 and work from home in the afternoon

At least your internet has been restored.

Obviously they don’t give a crap about South King County.

No power and no internet until last night around 9pm in the southern part of Sammamish. I think there was extensive damage all around and I heard the power crews were focusing on getting areas with retail stores up and running first.

A colleague of mine who lives in Sammamish was struggling without power or internet until last night as well.

It looks like I was in a small oasis in Kent that didn’t lose power, but did lose internet for 3 days.
