[asianthree]

Not even when the tree fell in our pool, Thursday, thanks to Milton. The whole house surge suppressor for 5 minutes.
5 villages and 17 years not a power loss to be had, add on the 2 minutes when they switched our old seco meter for new one.

[BlueStarAirlines]

Not even a blip in Marsh Bend\Deluna

[Aloha]

Lost power for 23 hours in Historic section of The Villages due to the continuing failure of Duke Energy to upgrade the equipment in the affected area. Duke Energy is well aware of the needed upgrade as this area is the first to lose power and the last to have it restored.

Citrus Grove Leesburg power out 36 hours and still waiting on Spectrum for internet ������

Ugh, that sounds like Clearwater. The bubble isn’t all safe from storms though, that’s for sure.

Hope everything comes back on soon for you

Country club hills.
Lost power at 8am Thursday for about 10 hours.

[DrHitch]

A few flickers up here near Spanish Springs....

The two electric providers (Duke and SECO) had different outcomes in the Spanish Springs area. SECO stayed up 100%, but Duke served areas out for 8-12 hours including the entire town square...that was a weird cart drive Thursday night!

[ChicagoNative]

We are not in the Villages proper, but share a boundary with Bridgeport at Miona, Lynnhaven, and Ashland. Our power went out Wednesday night at 7 and came back on Friday morning at 11.

The weird part is that we called Duke 5 times, and on call #3 Thursday afternoon we were told that our ticket was resolved and closed as the power was back on. It wasn’t. All our neighbors started calling and were told the same thing. If it wasnt for persistent calling by us, Duke never would have realized that their system was wrong. We likely sat powerless for 18 or so hours longer than we needed.

Then yesterday afternoon, we get an automated call from Duke telling us the power will be back on by Sunday, 10-14 by 11:59pm. We’d already been back on for several hours. Online update map showed all of our area including the aforementioned villages out. Apparently Dukes left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing and it does not inspire confidence!

[opinionist]

Power was lost for two days - Duke Energy
Orange Blossom Gardens

[Kittycat2]

Been in Silver Lake for so many years. Other than minor blips we’ve lost power three times. 2004, 2017 and 30 hours last week.

[Nana2Teddy]

Here in Mallory Square, we had not even a blip of power loss. Did you lose power?
No in DeLuna (SECO), but we did have a brief surge that affected our TV/internet, and turned on two living room lamps that had been off. These are the kind of lamps you just touch the base to turn on. None of our lamps that have to be switched on were affected. We also had our bedroom ceiling fan lights flicker a few times around midnight when the winds were at their strongest, but that’s it.

[BBBnWitty]

St Catherine 14 hrs and internet 2 days.

I would love to see a map of all the power grids. I know who you don’t want, Leesburg Electric.

[Carlsondm]

“The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second is war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunists.” —Ernest Hemingway

[UpNorth]

All the above should answer the question: "Should I invest in a backup power generator"?

[Normal]

St Catherine - not a flicker. Internet stayed on too.

Great to hear. Likely you were North of St Catherine ? Do you have Leesburg for power too? I’m curious as to why half of St. Catherine got hit and half was fine?

[coffeebean]

Lost power for 23 hours in Historic section of The Villages due to the continuing failure of Duke Energy to upgrade the equipment in the affected area. Duke Energy is well aware of the needed upgrade as this area is the first to lose power and the last to have it restored.

Short answer for me is "NO".

[kcrazorbackfan]

At 2:35 am Thursday morning in Bradford, it blipped for a nano second.

[Dusty_Star]

Great to hear. Likely you were North of St Catherine ? Do you have Leesburg for power too? I’m curious as to why half of St. Catherine got hit and half was fine?


That's a good question. We should ask everyone who answers: who their power supplier is? did they lose internet? who is the internet provider? did they lose water? who is the water provider? & the same questions to everyone who answers that they didn't loose anything,

[hosegooseman]

[mkjelenbaas]

Here in Mallory Square, we had not even a blip of power loss. Did you lose power?
In response to your question I will say - No

[RcCalais]

I am in the Hacienda area using Duke Energy, we had a couple of flickers but didn't even have to reset the clocks. Did loose cable including phone and TV with Outcast (Comcast) for about 20 hours.

[WingedFoot78]

Here in Fernandina we had a few flickers, but no outages. Thanks for the buried utilities.

[retiredguy123]

Buried utilities have very little to do with it. Most areas that lost power also had buried utilities.

[Davonu]

My mother-in-law in Tampa Bay totally lost power...and is being told by the power company that it will be Wednesday or Thursday before it's restored. :shocked:

[elle123]

How many weeks will the golf courses remain closed?

[Two Bills]

How many weeks will the golf courses remain closed?

When Irma passed by, courses were shut for over 5 months, and when they reopened, only left-handed players were allowed to play for the first few weeks, then righties were allowed, in an increment of ten additional players a day.
Lot more water this time!
