We’re dealing with some stormy weather here (Vancouver for me, but it covers a wider area) and so a patchwork of homes across the region are having power outages. Crews are working to restore it

So on that note, what do you like to do?

ways to prepare, what to buy, a favourite flashlight from !flashlight@lemmy.world?
how you pass the time
any stories that come to mind?

  We only have the big transmission lines above ground, so our grid is not that weather sensitive. A week would be insane here
