I went five days without Florida Power & Light (FPL) electricity after Ian hit.
The contractors FPL brought in worked hard.
Some houses in my county went over two weeks without electricity.
About a third of my neighboring households have generators.
Solar lawn lights can be taken indoors at night to provide inside light.
Ian was a cat 4/5. You went 5 days without power.
Houston was hit with a cat 1. The majority of Houston went without power for 5-6 days--for a cat 1.
There's a bit of a difference.
