To the editor:
On Friday, Jan. 13, after a hellacious snow, rain, ice and wind storm, we lost power at 2:20 p.m.
Central Maine Power was called to inform them of the outage. CMP was called again after noting a tree on a wire and a transformer hanging from a broken pole. The CMP operator assured us it was just our three residences, and it would be fixed.
Three crews worked until 11: 35 p. m. under the worst conditions imaginable, including very high winds and bitter cold.
Thanks to the devoted workers who gave us our power back.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
