Yes, my sister's power is still out after 7 days and the National News mentioned only the area closest to her saying that there are still
100,000 people there without power and, due to flooding following the
freezing rain, it will be days before some of them get power back.

They mentioned they have 3000 Hydro (Power) workers there working
on it so it's not like they aren't doing their best to fix it..
