I would have waited for my coffee. I get grumpy like so many in this thread if I don’t have mine!

1. The power company should be more reliable.
2. McDonalds should open the inside seating area.
3. Cigar smoking should be banned in all dining areas.

Everything is fine now. The power is back on.
First sentence -- Woke up at 7. I'M HAPPY I WOKE UP!!

I agree, and I bought a relatively small portable inverter generator as insurance for the hurricane season. My number one concern, beside it having enough watts to start up the fridge, was how noisy it runs. Quite a bit quieter than our air conditioner units outside our homes in Mallory. We need to be able to sleep with it on. Up north I have a standby generator with a silencer etc. You can still hear it 2 doors away. Did not want something like that here in TV.

No, it was definitely a whine.
