    Great job APCO at pruning all those trees this past summer and fall. That work kept the juice flowing to most residents.

    Couldn't believe how UNdevestated our city looks today; was expecting the worst. Not even a tree or branch down on my way to work!

    Worst of #Sandy past for Roanoke/NRV but it will only slowly lose its grip. Expect a few 50 mph wind gusts today & some snow/rain showers.
