When will the power come back up in Fillmore
No car available to walk across town to get hot water, my mom is too old to walk as well and I can not send my under 11 year old siblings in this weather to even attempt to get some at a gas station or fast food chain to feed my baby and with neighbors not being home or not having power themselves my 3 month old son is struggling to drink his cold bottle. He refuses to drink it lukewarm so I’m afraid after these 10 minutes of trying to get him to drink the cold bottle he will only continue to cry. Edison should really have pop up areas throughout ALL AREAS OF TOWN especially if it’s always the same areas that are left helpless. I hope the people with medical issues are taken care of this time around
