Still pouring. When it isn't pouring, it's that heavy heavy mist. No idea what we're up to here so I'll just wait for TBlizz to update his total since his house is about 4 miles from mine

Oh cool, it's pouring again. Can we double digit?

Yeah, this band means business. There's going to be some impressive rain totals in the Raynham/Taunton/route 44 area when all is said and done.

85/66 An amazing pool or Beach day, but for those of us who work outside all day, definitely not COC. -

Working in Hyannis today. Lots of sun and blue skies approaching the bridges. Very breezy, feels like florida. -
I've installed a few battery (only) back-ups. Believe it or not, Briggs and Stratton was the brand I installed. They make battery back up modules for some reason. Anyway, I don't think they are great for a stand alone system. They are super expensive and obviously will run out if there is a long outage (more than a day or 2). But, if your power company charges a higher rate during peak times (3-10 pm), you can program the transfer switch to allow you to use battery power during those times and then charge them with grid power overnight when it's cheaper. So there's that... If money was no option, the perfect system would be a combo of solar and battery. The panels power your house and charge the batteries during the day and you run off battery power for the evenings/overnight. Wouldn't use much grid power during spring/summer/fall.

I work for AC Power Solutions in SE MA. We install and service whole house Generac generators. I have also installed many Kohler generators as well. I don't have a preference for brand. But I would definitely recommend just doing the whole house and not dedicated circuits. It might be a little more expensive but it's way more convenient

Hoisting the Sultan Signal: Heavy Rain Event July 5-7
butterfish55 replied to WxWatcher007's topic in New England
Was working in Taunton by route 44 all morning with off and on light rain. Just drove to a job in Brockton with dry roads and breaks in the clouds. Very sharp cut off for rain. -
I’ve had my solar for about 12 years. Small system, only 18 panels. Bought the system outright, no leasing….No complaints at all. There are little issues here and there, but nothing major. I expected to see some decline in production as the panels have aged, but I honestly haven’t seen anything. Just had my second highest June production in their 12th year.
