Just got a weather update that in a couple days our lows will be in the high 40's! WoW! Fall might really happen. I'd almost given up.

Still no power. Have to go get more gas for generator.
Doesn't look like PSE did anything overnight same number of outages in area. Orting city is still without power.

Still no power. At least it says crew assigned now.
Small line at the non ethanol pump for everyone getting generator gas. We went through 5 gallons last night up until around 1 today.
Have a heater plugged in now to warm the house up from 60°. Might take an hour to be perfect. It hasn't been on all day. Someone freaked when I mentioned I have a heater plugged into an extension cord. It's a 10 gauge cord bought just for that. No overheating. The AC actually draws more power and does fine.
