If this is HUGE SALEM POWER OUTAGE is how well PGE does at keeping the power on when it clear, dry, and no wind...I can only imagine how badly we are all screwed this weekend when it drops to 20 degrees, drops up to 4 inches of snow ❄️ on us, and is freezing rain, sleet, ice, and very windy.. TIME TO BUY A GENERATOR!
