I lost power for a week. Wilma S Fl. .  Was so awful , left town and stayed with my relative in Orlando. Storm itself was awesome.

I would take that again. But granted , not a month .

Longest in my adult life was 4 days in 1998, plus 4-5 hours next day - probably intentional shutoffs to protect lineworkers nearby.  Had anything broken in the 400' between Brunswick Avenue and our place, it would've been more like 14 days than 4.  The 1953 ice storm in NNJ took out our power for 6 days, but we didn't worry about losing internet or charging our cellphones back then.  At my age (almost 7) it was a great adventure.  Have yet to lose power due to a TC, only ice storms, wet snow and traffic accidents.

I don't think we're in a TC drought - per se ... - in New England.

Unless this has changed ... I recall reading there's a rough 30 year periodicity for at or > cat 1 threat N of NYC latitude/coast...

We had Bob in ' 91?  ...plus, a cornucopia of residual threats that might sorta kinda argue for occurrence ( tho lame) via the lesser aggregate. 

Expectations are constant drama and dystopian or bust, I know ... Lol
