Out in the Twin Towns out West, the television channels were going off cable one by one, until by 8 p.m. only Love FM continued to the end of electricity about 8.30 p.m. Since then we have been without electricity, without BTL internet and this morning about 7 a.m. the BWS water system went down and no water flow in the faucets. One would have expected BEL crews to be out fixing things in the dark, after the storm passed out WEST here. Either they didn´t go out, or they had more problems than they can handle,as no electricity yet.
I´m using battery power for my computer and thank heavens I did not give up my SMART MODEM yet. Have decided to keep it, as it is the only telecommunications system working. BTL apparently broke down for some strange reason? Just came back to the computer room and checked on the markets and have a signal for a trade, so just put a trade on for $2500 usa. Will click off shortly to preserve my battery as I don´t need the computer probably for another couple of hours. It is 10.20 a.m. here.

LAter.... Almost 2 p.m. here and still no electricity, no water and no BTL internet. We still operate on battery for the computer and Smart modem internet.( Monday )
Bank and lots of stores were open today in the Twin Towns though. Using private generators.
