Default Storm!! AMS without power

We got hit bad by the storm @ 8am and lost power. We have no ETA for being back up as of 10am.

We called everyone we had contact info in regards to appointments.

We hope to be back up sometime soon and ask for everyone patience in the meantime.

Thanks

That sucks Larry, minor inconvenience, but luckily and more important, it's that no one got hurt and property wasn't damaged.

Damn. We went down a couple of times in Carol Stream, but luckily it came right back on. I'm glad you're not out at home though...this heat would suck without air.

Default still no electricity

ComEd is being very vague about when we might get it back but it could be a few more days...we are hoping not.

Joe I'm am thankful to have power at home and feel for the many who do not in this hot / humid weather.
