Good day to watch a movie. Anyone else got 3 or folks in the house and need to use ranked choice voting to decide on film?

Did someone say SNOW?

BLIZZARD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM MIDNIGHT TONIGHT TO 5 AM EST SUNDAY.

It's a perfect day to plop down on the couch and enjoy a favorite movie... Well, not so much for us. PMLP is facing an emergency snow day, and we have crews that will be at the plant ready to address whatever this storm brings. Planning began days ago and culminated with a planning review session on Friday.

Please stay safe. If power goes out, we generally know it through our Advanced Metering Infrastructure. Still, a phone call is helpful. Unfortunately, when everyone calls at one, it's not possible for us to answer all the calls all at once. If the phone circuits are busy, it simply means that someone else is trying to notify us too.

We will try to use social media to our advantage, so please watch our Facebook or Twitter feed.

Please respect the request to stay off the road. This allows plows and emergency vehicles to do the job you expect.

As always, remember that if there is a downed wire, don't touch it and don't go near it. Call us at 978-531-5975.

Thank you for your patience in advance. TEAM PMLP is prepared!

Supporters say the measure would end the days of congressmen being more concerned with staving off primary challenges than the general election.

🎉 A MAJOR FIRST! 🎉 The U.S. House of Representatives has passed The Voter Choice Act, which grants money to upgrading elections with RCV in places where it has been enacted, as an amendment to the Protecting Our Democracy Act.

Let's take a moment to marvel and give gratitude to the nine members of the Massachusetts delegation, who all voted a resounding YES! ✅
