The longest power outage I've ever been in must've been when I was about the age of seven. Actually it was when I was seven. Our island had got kicked in the arse by a hurricane and seven telephone poles in a roll collapsed. Worse of all when the hurricane started, I was at the tennis courts with my sister with no car. So we had to walk to a restaurant *a pizza restaurant* and call my father. Then the power went out right in the restaurant. I dont remember much more cept for that my relatives came over to check on us which was ironic because they dont even come over once a year.

The longest for me was that mass power outage we had in... er... was it 2002? o_O It was that one were mostly all of Eastern US and mid-Eastern Canada was out. I suppose ours was out for almost 12 hours. That's the longest I can think of. @[email protected] We don't normally get many outages.

Well, I recently had a power outage where I lived back 6 days ago. The power was out for a good 5-6 hours.

Oddly enough... the blackouts only last that long also. Or less. So 6 hours is the longest I've experienced.

The longest power outage? O_o; I dunno if it was the longest one I've ever had, or how long it lasted... but back when I was in 6th grade, so 2000, there was this mini tornado funnel cloud thingy that hit my town. o_o; So that caused a power outage that was pretty long... I'd say it was about 24 hours, maybe.

It was this past winter when we had an ice storm in December. The power lines became coated in inch-thick ice and snapped in most places--we were spared a lot of peril since we lived in town and the power was only out for about ten hours, most of it in the middle of the night. Everywhere in the country around us didn't have power for seven days o_o;

2 entire days, and it happened a week ago. My dad was gone so long, he missed the payment...


Paired with Tiger-Chan, and it's not gonna change any time soon! :P
Deceived by my eyes and all I was told I should see
Opinions not mine, the person they taught me to be
One night in the dark, a vision of someone I knew
And in the darkness I saw, a voice say, I'm you.
Inside me a light was turned on Then I was alive

(v chorus v)
If you close your eyes your life, an empty truth revealed
Dreams you never lived, and scars never healed
In the darkness, light will take you to the other side
and find me waiting there you'll see, if you just close your eyes

Hearts uninspired, trapped inside somebody's dream
Too close to the fire, yet cold and numb with the pain
But the fever has broken, and the river has run to the sea
Washed to the ocean, and saved by a voice inside me.
Inside me a light was turned on Then I was alive
(chorus)
Never thought I would be here, so high in the air
This was my unanswered prayer
Defined by another, so much wasted time
Out of the darkness, each breath that I take will be mine
(chorus)
If you just close your eyes...

Ah who can forget that power outage in 2002?... XD for me it was out for about 26 hours because it went out at about 4:36PM and finally returned to our area around 6:30Pm the next day

Other then that, the longest I have experienced was for about an hour or so.

About 36 hours, during the fires of 2002. The fires had burnt the power lines and that took a while to repair.

But that isn't really bad. A year or two ago, when New South Wales was experiencing hurricane-like winds, some homes were out for over a week, with a smaller amount closing in on two weeks. o_o;

I would say a couple of hours, a long time ago o_O;
Most of the time, we don't even have power outages ^^;
