I just spoke briefly with Ruchira a short while ago.While they are currently without power, there’s no structural damage to the home and the water is still on. It may be a few days before Ruchira gets back online, though.
She said that it was a very bad storm, the worst that she has ever been through. The power was restored relatively quickly to most of her neighborhood, except for her house and a couple of neighbors, who had downed trees near power lines that caused a blown transformer near them. She is not sure when the utility people will get to them, because other areas are currently higher priority. It could be a few days or even weeks depending on how bad the situation is in the worst affected areas. They may move to a hotel room if any become available, if the power isn’t restored soon.
One response to “Ike and Ruchira: Update (Sujatha)”
Wow — very sorry to hear it Ruchira! But glad to hear you and your husband are OK.
