We've not lost power yet, thankfully. Flickered a few times, but that's it.

Hope it is a short lived outage. Keep us updated. We're praying for you.

Made a beer run about 5:30 and half the stoplights were without power already, in Fairfax City.
Power went off and on here a few times around 6-ish, but since then no problems, so far.
On that Dominion Power map, inside the Beltway and the outer parts of Fairfax are losing power but we're in the lucky area, and praying.
Weatherbug is set to read from Robinson Secondary, says wind gusts up to 30 and 1.9 inches of rain.
On the radio we heard that lowlying parts of Fairfax near the Potomac are being evacuated.
