I daresay that neither you nor I are included in that "some". lol Our respective forecasts below. I think Dave is the one person who will manage anything beyond a trace (frankly, I don't think I could measure a 1/4 inch of snow.) When are you linking your Davis back up, Kevin?

I do use those forecasts as I use any other information I can get. That said, those reflect what I think is going to happen. QPF will be liquid until the end when traces will likely be recorded. I doubt anyone gets 1"+. Dave and a few other spots NW of ORH may eek it out imho. Hopefully I'm wrong. Certainly won't be the first time. But, we'll see. Either way, I bet my chimney work gets punted.

39.9/30

Some weird sh*t last night. At around 10pm, I heard this explosion...big blue flash and the power went out. I actually fell asleep and it woke me up. I thought someone maybe hit a power pole or something. All the sudden another flash, sizzle, and explosion and I realize it was 4 houses down for me..couple hundred feet away. Looked like the transformer blew up and the wires caught on fire. The owners in that house were freaking out, yelling call 911 and then another explosion sent the wire down and almost hit those people. Kids were screaming...lol. It took about 3 hrs to get the power back, but it just randomly blew up.

I think some of the wiring is old. You can just tell by looking at the poles and transformers.

Yeah, I can imagine that. Or maybe a squirrel shorted a line. Was the smell of burnt rodent in the air? You're fortunate in that usually things like this happen at 1 or 2 am. Although that may not be such a crappy deal now as you could just go check out the Euro, though the Rev says it's as useless as the JMA. At any rate, glad you're safe! :)
