Worst straight line storm I have ever seen!

I live outside Memphis Tn and we had a horrible storm a few hours ago. There are several cities that have absolutely no electricity at all and I have never seen so many trees struck by lightning. I have no electricity and no one in my neighborhood or city does either. Of course I will lose all the food in my refrigerator and I have no idea when electricity will be restored since it looks like the whole state is out. Wonder where I will get some food if all the stores are shut down?

Wow, It stormed in my area earlier too. Power went out and went back on.

@Tennessee oh wow- you got lucky!! I have never lost electricity for more than a few hours, but over 130,000 lost electricity so it might be awhile before they get to me. Hope not!

@BackyardShaman MLGW. I am on a different transformer than everyone else in my neighborhood but there’s no one in my entire neighborhood that has electricity. Or my entire city.

@BackyardShaman who can afford a whole house generator? I am a widow who works as a cashier in a grocery store. 😂
