  1. It’s not LF at steinhatchee. It will be north of there. Adams Beach maybe
  2. Clear west jog now. Tallahassee might be in trouble
  3. Bucks County. Wasn’t really visible with naked eye. Sky looked a bit different for sure. This was looking north.
  4. got these through the clouds here in SEPA an hour ago
  5. My son plans to be up. Told him to wake me if it looks good
  6. Bucks County PA an hour ago with iPhone through clouds
  7. Correct. The iPhone with dark photos uses long exposure to get as much light as possible. This was the result. I will say though that the sky looked different at the time. Weird I’d say
  8. Imagine how strong it would have been here at that moment with no clouds. Jesus
  9. Was taken via iPhone. Long exposure. Perfect timing as we still haven’t been able to replicate again. He has multiple photos
  10. Heading to Breck next week (2 days in Keystone then 4 days in Breck). Staying right at base of peak 7 all four days. These photos make me both super pumped and super scared! First for me and the family out west.
  11. Heading to Keystone for two days (3/28-3/29) and plan to hit Vail on the 29th. Then we stay on Peak 7 at Breck for 4 days 3/30-4/3. Hopping they get some nice storms between now and then. Kids are pumped! Skied Whiteface Friday. What a sheet of ice!
  12. I installed my 20kw system last summer for $2.50/watt
  13. Snow squall warnings up…..radar seems to indicate no big deal.
  14. I get it, but even the utilities themselves are already transitioning away from gas powered peakers to BESS. LIPA has already released PPAs for BESS projects to completely replace all of its gas peakers. The transitioning is happening, although it certainly won't happen overnight or at the speed we need for it to make a massive impact on our CO2 emissions in the near term. Being in the industry I have seen first hand what the lending rates have done to the market, but the IRA with its 10-year 30% ITC which for the first time ever includes BESS projects has helped to elevate a lot of that pain. Not all of it of course.
  15. THIS^ Coal has already, for several years now, been more expensive to produce electricity when compared to solar (even without incentives). Energy prices continue to climb and that is why every large corporation has been investing heavily in renewables for their demand needs. They lock in cheap energy for 25-30 years and 30 years from now the technology to repower those systems will be ten fold better. Battery tech is increasing tremendously with large scale storage projects coming online all the time. Off shore wind, which until recently made little financials sense, now, because of better turbine tech AND battery storage, will be a huge part of our energy future. Renewables are the future, regardless of whether fo9lks want to believe in man made climate change.
