More misery for some snowed-in Western Albemarleans: no power. Hook correspondent Lynn Jameson reports there’s no juice on Miller School Road and in Cory Farms in Crozet, and that Dominion advised her it should be back on again around 8pm. Dominion’s interactive website reports 2,133 outages in Albemarle County.

    This is were it gets scary. People will do anything to stay warm, including burning their house down. Ashes, thought to be extinguished, put on porches from the fireplace, are another common cause of fires.

    WINA has been off the air since 8:45pm yesterday and is still off, due to a Virginia Dominion Power outage. Mr. Jefferson’s home is also in the dark, as is Pantops, and the area near Albemarle High, where the WINA transmitter is located. As of 8:30am over 4,000 area homes and businesses are off the grid.

    My Sister, husband and two kids live in that area (Holkham Charlottesville, VA 22901) and they are without power still? This is serious. Get the frigging VA Guard out there.
