Power has been out since before 8pm. Utility Trucks were out here, then left saying a different crew would come. That was over 1½ hours ago and the new crew is nowhere to be seen. There is a lady in the building who needs electricity to sleep due to oxygen necessity. BGE says it'll be fixed by 12am, which...I highly doubt at this point, as it's almost 11:30pm. This building will have no water tomorrow as well. Super inconvenient.
Power went out on Jennifer Way again! Visiting a friend and boom! No power.
Power went out about 2 minutes ago, it's not raining or particularly hot current. What's up @BGE ?
