Anyone lose power the last few days?

I'm in Colorado and we were experiencing gale-force winds last week. I didn't have power for the last 3 days and it was miserable. I just got it back tonight. Did that happen to you guys too?

We're in Colorado too. Two 30+ hour power outages since Wednesday morning. But we're fortunate enough to have a generator we can run occasionally. And at least it wasn't terribly cold. If the weather had been colder lots of folks would be facing burst pipes about now.

Xcel needs to get better about restoring power quickly after these planned outages!
