Going on 13-14 hours with no power and stuck in close quarters with family. FML!

Since we have a generator, we made a bunch of coffee and took it around to our neighbors. One of them showed me the utility pole in their backyard - snapped right in half.

Only bad thing is that we lost our u-verse.

According to Forbidden Hillcrest, 70% of LR is without power, and Entergy is saying to expect 3-5 days with some areas taking longer.

9-10 inches where I'm at in Conway and still with power.

Been on the roads for about 3 hours with no issues. Hwy 65 seems to be pretty clear

I believe downtown LR still has power. Outages are at Midtown and farther West. Downtown would be your best bet for a hotel.

The Xterra and I are still mobile. About 2 miles from LR.

Lost count how many cars I've seen in the median or a tree

good luck getting here. I just stayed away from other cars on my drive yesterday. I wasn't worried to much about sliding into them but there are some people in arkansas that can't drive when it's dry and sunny much less when there's snow and ice on the ground.
