Default Longest Power Outages

All the power in my old town, and where my mom still works at, lost all power today for a couple of hours. It made me think of this question. What is the longest time you went without power in your house/school? What is the most worse time it has happened to you?

we went for 2 whole weeks without power a year after I moved to my current house.

P.S.-it was due to wind speeds of over 95-110 mph.

man i dont compare to hunting girl or j3k, but the longest for me was 3 days....one of the power boxes on our block blew up and sent the entire block on a power outage. My dad went and bought a generator so we could at least keep the fridges and freezer running gotta keep that venison cold.
