yeah some really good downpours just went by, nearby stations up to an inch now

discharge line bigger than a garden hose could help; man that's a ton of water !

that's awful, every 4-6 weeks? you and your neighbors must all be so pissed at the POCO. Is the issue mostly related to overhead wires and mature trees, or is it due to older under ground infrastructure?

lol nothing political about it, just like the "leftist" comment from damaged in trolland was 0% political the renaming was a political executive order issued for "reasons", and is only observed by certain executive agencies because they have been commanded to do so, and administration sycophants; the rest of us don't need to, and will not kowtow to, this blatantly political BS Americans get a chance to fix this "Gulf of America" BS in 2.5 years

when the the TD in the Gulf of Mexico becomes a threat to the eastern seaboard, I'll be tracking it with you

am i correct in understanding you don't see a problem here ?

more political BS on the weatherside tolerated because, well, reasons

where is the Gulf of America, never heard of it before

I'd love to respond to the so-called "leftism" comment but I know we aren't allowed to be political in the weather subforums (unless of course you support the side of the Epstein Administration). bring back PR and bring this "leftism" bullshit to where it belongs so it can be properly addressed outside of the weatherside

this is how i managed the 2011 Octobomb. Grabbed the Honda 2000 we had at work second day in. It would run the forced air heating system, I macgyver'ed in a temporary plug. After warming the house, the important functions were easy: coffee grinder/coffee maker, power vent water heater, and some temp lighting and phone charging; cooking was on the grill and the camp stove

maybe it's behind us

it's glorious out there right now. heading to Brimfield tomorrow for an antique sweat fest turned wash out no doubt

What about whole house battery back-up? @butterfish55 battery only installs a thing yet ? seems like if outages are short, battery tech might be far enough along to consider.

I'm thankful i live somewhere the power rarely goes out, and when it does it's rarely for more than an hour the one exception was October 2011; 98 1/2 hours of no power with 3 kids under 8, fun times

you would think that it would be relatively easy to deploy software that allows a full sized photo to be uploaded, even if the file size ends up being reduced when displayed
