downdetector is full of people all over the country reporting their spectrum is out. I figure, if every tree-caused power outage also knocked out the internet wires, and spectrum only has, say, a quarter of the linemen that a power company does, they're going to be busy busy busy and we might all be out for days.

My family has set up mobile hotspots using our phones and LTE through Verizon and we're chugging along well enough to watch youtube and hang out on reddit on our PCs, I recommend trying that if you're able. We're also keeping a clock starting at 4:30 on the 23rd to not pay for the days we're out of service.
