The power went off at the height of the storm last night. We are on the north branch. don't know about the south branch.
It was quite a storm over here,

Hopefully they get it fixed this afternoon or I will be taking a ride up after work to get generator going to save food in refrigerator!!

Large tree down near #52 Welch, took all the lines to the ground. Situation was reported to PSNH at about 6:15 am today.

Power may be on but who knows if Fairpoint DSL has been fixed. I doubt PSNH is going to touch their lines...

That large tree cut through the power lines and took the phone cable almost to the ground. Had to have done some damage.

Pretty typical for Fairpoint! You can't get in touch with them on a good day! That's why I said good luck... :)
