Had another hour or so of no power. The worst of the storm has just passed us. Just when the weatherman on TV said a burst was passing through Concord, we had a huge wind gust, maybe 50 mph. I heard a banging noise upstairs, but haven't gone to look. No trees down, just lots of little branches and leaves. DH had to go out and fix one of the drains he had made after a flood a few years ago.
The wind has just shifted to the west/southwest instead of straight south, so that would mean less tree damage possibility for my house.
