I think that's a good question to put into the mix. I just got power back myself midnight. The power went out from a big old tree on someones property that they failed to maintain. I like trees and prefer a wooded property than bare but people should use common sence and maintain their property. Anything that looks like it could hit a line should be put into consideration. That one tree cost thousands and thousands of dollars to people on my road. Myself, I paid over 120 in generator fuel, plus missed work (over $400) and not to mention stress.😅😅 Is what it is I expect it especially by now where i live but if we all do our part collectively we can make a difference.
