[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous[b]]It’s extremely rare to lose power in the winter around here[/b]. It’s never happened to me in 19 years. Isn’t that more of a southern/ice thing?[/quote] What? Are you joking?[/quote] No. I have lived here since 2007 and have literally never lost power in the winter. I live in Sterling and our [b]power lines are all buried[/b]. We lost it one time in the summer due the derecho. That’s it. In 18 years.[/quote] You might be in a newer development. Most of the DC area does not have buried lines, and power outages are common both in the summer and in the winter. In my experience, they rarely last longer than a few hours, but longer periods of outages do happen when unusual amounts of snow fall - such as what is being projected for the weekend.[/quote]
