Thank you for this information. I reside at 2643 Saddle Lane, Macungie, PA and my sister resides at 844 John Street, Bethlehem, PA. We are still without power.
I live in a 55+ residence and there are several people who reside there that need oxygen.
I am hopeful that today is the day that our electric will be turned back on.
Thank you.
