Resources for those without power – UPDATED

A couple hundred of you are still without power today, and if your comments around the web are any indication, you’re frustrated and cold and probably in need of a shower. In the hope that it will help, I’m compiling a list of (free) places in the area where you can go to get some relief.

I’ll update the list as information becomes available. If anyone knows of other resources, please share them in the comments.
