Ice storm

[ontariobee]

Well we have had some shitty weather here. I was out all night with the fire department for hydro lines down and transformers blowing up. We haven't had this many trees,limbs or hydro poles down since i've been alive. We have over 45 hydro poles snapped off in just a 1.5mile radius around town. our town is small only about 2000 people. Just heard we could be out of hydro for 5 days. Its about 1*C here right now so its cold. Thank god for generators to keep the house warm and fridges cold

Heres a small stretch of hydro poles down

i have enough power i could run the tube as well. I googled that and they all say not to run a big screen off a generator because of the spikes, and being an electrician as well, i can understand why. I have heat, tunes and cold beer, hell im set

We don't have to worry about power outage's, with all the Hurricanes and Tropical Storms down here the previous home owner installed one of those instant generators that kicks on within a second of a power outage. Would've been nice to have back when we had Hurricanes rolling through here every few months. Since we got here the neighborhood has never lost power from a storm.

That would have been nice. big money though. We got restored with power late sunday night so it wasn't too bad the hydro guys were putting in some long hours. I forgot how nice it was to just flip and light switch on.
