  1. I’ve been there, hang in there, the elation you’ll feel when it does come back will be awesome.
  2. I use the extension cords I use for my outdoor Christmas lights.
  3. You should move, that's all ridiculous. I just run the extension cords, not that big a deal for even a week to me.
  4. Yep, lots of stories of bad things happening when backfeeding, which is why its illegal. Just have a transfer switch installed and you'll be good to go but keep in mind how many watts your generator is capable of in relation to how many watts your house calls for at peak. I've also heard stories of folks doing a number on their appliances because the proper wattage is not available for them to run correctly.
  5. Pressure bottomed out here at 997.5mb at 2:46pm, I’m curious what you guys got down to so fire away
  6. You turned off your main breaker into the house, correct? If you didn’t you and the power crew as are going to have an issue they are working on the line and when the power comes back.
  7. I haven’t heard from Mom so I’m guessing she’s still waiting. A tree took three poles down on 94 across from ABC Pizza
  8. You can rest easy knowing that my power came back.
  9. I just fired mine up, no water here though until the power comes back, hopefully it comes back before I get too ripe...
  10. 1.58” in the Stratus, debris clogging the Davis a bit.
  11. We have Central Hudson and their website is down due to internet storm damage, oh joy.
  12. 1.35” in the Davis, need to check the Stratus
  13. Lost power about 30 minutes ago, lots of branches down. Not a fan.
  14. As someone who appreciates good sarcasm I'm thinking this thread, today, is not the place for it. Lets keep the good info going in here instead, thanks.
  15. He was in the eye wall as it ramped up to 85 mph last night, the lights flickered off and back on once and some sand got under the posts for the stairs from the dune down to the beach lifting them up. So that needs to be dug out a bit and that's it, no other issues fortunately. Of course everything there is built to stand up to hurricanes to a certain Cat, which one I'm not sure, which helps a lot.
  16. Not sure if you you saw it buried in the main thread but my son rode it out in a beach house in SC, was in what there was of the western eye wall last night, and quite possibly the edge of the eye itself as the winds just went to calm for a 30-45 minutes after ripping all evening. He was underwhelmed for a bit yesterday afternoon but that changed quickly as the center got closer, it was fun seeing his videos and chatting with him while all of this was going on yesterday evening.
  17. My son is down near Georgetown SC, he had been underwhelmed but things may be picking up.
  18. Had fireflies in my yard last night.
  19. @Juliancolton I just saw a couple trees in one of the wet areas on Greenville Mountain showing color...it’s coming
  20. My son has been working remotely from a house on the beach just south of Pawleys Island, SC...he might get some good photos/videos in a few days...
