8. Not uncommon in MD to have isolated areas take that long

after a major storm.

Remote area, hamlets, etc have a lot of long lines that can be taken down by falling trees etc. That takes time to repair, esp if poles are down as well. In newer areas, the underground line lessen that, but there isn't much new around Buffalo.

I live in an urban area these days, but when I get back to Calif, I will much more rural. The house has a cutover point and a generator will follow.
