Yea I couldn't imagine. My area was a tourist location so we got power back first but still took 1-2 months after and was unreliable for a year basically before it was consistently okay. A lot of the population on the island are elderly people who lived in a time with limited electricity they all survived better then my soft privledged self. I had a 75 year old neighbor down the hallway who was 90% blind lived on his own and was cooking steaks two days after the storm with his little gas stove . He was a prepper learned some things from him. One cool thing I remember about no electricity was I met more people that next day after the storm then I did one full year of living in that building. People just live in their pods. When there is no electricity there was actually some community where people were out interacting and helping each other out. I saw a lot of good. Gave me some hope for humanity.
