  1. Also, i'm not putting all the blame on evasive insects, but as i'm getting back to work, i'm noticing they definitely had their hand in this.
  2. Power companies busy, but it probably wouldn't hurt to walk around and send emails, if you notice these flipped downwards on your streets.
  3. The power companies will never mention cutouts needing closed because idiots will go out there with diy hot sticks and try to flip them themselves. Substation is what they always say because they're locked off, and people can't try to fix them themselves.
  4. In electrical distribution, a fuse cutout or cut-out fuse (often referred to as a cutout) is a combination of a fuse and a switch, used in primary overhead feeder lines and taps to protect distribution transformers from current surges and overloads. An overcurrent caused by a fault in the transformer or customer circuit will cause the fuse to melt and the switch mechanism to visibly open, disconnecting the transformer from the line. The device can also be opened manually by utility linemen standing on the ground and using a long insulating stick called a "hot stick". Cutout (left) attached to a feeder line (connection at the right not shown). The lower wire goes to the transformer A set of pole top cutouts (with C-shaped bodies) protecting a transformer on a 12.47 kV distribution line. One fuse is blown and the tube is hanging down. Lightning arresters are mounted on the crossarm opposite the fuse cutouts. Fuse cutouts with V-shaped bodies.
  5. Driving around today, I noticed that there's still fused cutouts that need closed everywhere. Just for the utility company to go around and swing them closed will take a few more days with the amount that i've seen open. Look up in the poles, around here, you can see them open everywhere.
  6. Sun's already trying to burn through the fog out here. Looking directly at Falmouth.
  7. The old hat trick for a few may not be out of the question.
  8. My son said that there was a tornado reported in Perrry county . I'm not sure how legitimate that is. I'm just sitting here waiting for my opportunity to get my line out here in Goldsboro.
  9. Man, did I just f****** drive through something . Dangerous situation unfolding out here on the roads Newberrytown lewisberry area The torrential downpour, I just drove through is up there with some of the best of them.
  10. Ground strikes all around me while getting off the water, it's ominous out of here in the pincho area
  11. This is a lightning map from our storm yesterday. This really exemplifies how poor the LDN can be at times. It looks to me like it probably picked up less than 10% of the strikes yesterday in our area.
  12. Low level lapse rates and cape are juicing up nicely. The mid and upper levels haven't caught up to where they were yesterday, at this time . However, Northwestern PA is close to having very subtle overlap of both 3km cape and surface vorticity .
