  Our power in Powhatan went out around 9 am and was restored at 11:45 pm! I can say, this is the fastest it’s ever happened since we lived here! Thank you to everyone! Our generator kept us warm for the latter half of the night, but most of the day it wasn’t working.. thank goodness for an uncle who traveled here to fix it for that is a long time to freeze. I appreciate you all and pray all of the crews stay safe. This is dangerous work and they deserve all of the praise!

  I have been a SEC customer for 45 years. They are the best. We had a wet, heavy snowfall this week, with below freezing temperatures. I lost my power. A neighbor walked over to check on me at 8:30am yesterday, stating how many trees were down and we shouldn't expect any power soon. (Living in rural Powhatan that means no light, heat or water.) I had power before dark yesterday. Everyone complains about lack of staff - these people are dedicated!!

  Whenever there is any type of weather, other than sunshine, the power goes out. I'm originally from an area more rural than this, and response times are 100 times faster there. If you have any other choice, use another company. If you don't have a choice, like I don't, prepare for 24-28 hours without power every time it snows or is windy.
