maddmaxx ★ Posted September 30, 2020 Share #1 Posted September 30, 2020 We're fixin to lose power again in the next half hour. A very strong front is passing right now and the wind gusts are hitting 50+ with heavy rain. About 20 minutes ago one phase of the power to the house started a steady flickering up down up down as a wet branch somewhere grounded out one of the lines. I shut down the computer in the secret lab and returned to the chromebook on battery. Maybe we will escape. The front is only about 20 miles away and they are reporting that it will be over for us in the next half hour. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
