"We just lost power!" Saunders exclaimed. "Now, you just saw the power go out. If you can’t see me, I apologize, but that just happened. In fact, I’m seeing some alerts go off with other parts of the county. It looks like we still have traffic lights, but we definitely lost power in this block of Chiefland."

He continued, "And that again is because the wind is so intense. We’re obviously going to be as safe as we can out here. I think for now, I’m going to send it back to you, and we’re going to try and get some kind of light established so you can see us in our later live-ins."
