41 hours

41 hours without power. No notice. No updates. We lost all our food in the freezer and refrigerator, about $600 worth of groceries. Someone should loose their job because of this!

Recent mandatory power outage

As a result of the Marshall fire, Xcel and their insurance companies, accountants and attorneys decided to implement their "safety" mandatory power outage for the first time here in Colorado, which is one of the eight states that they service.I've lived in Roxborough Village for 22 years. It's extremely windy here several times per month. I've replaced two storm doors in five years from them being torn almost off their hinges. When the wind gusts get really bad, I can feel my house shaking when I'm on the 2nd floor. That was not the case for this last wind event…

Xcel’s unreliability continues

Though this outage lasted nearly about 20 hours, I am on an oxygen concentrator and bi-pap. Without power I can not sleep. Luckily this only ruined about $500 worth of meat and other food. Unfortunately this is not a surprise or rare occurrence. Our neighborhood experiences this about 8-12 times a year at least.Snow=outage, wind=outage, rain= outage, bird or squirrel=outage, heck even on a calm sunny spring day we have outages. All the neighborhoods around us are will have power, except our 4 block x 2 block neighborhood will be out of power for between 4 and 24 hours.
