Anybody Else Lose Power from Isaias?
« on: August 07, 2020, 07:04:06 am »
We lost power for three days from tropical storm Isaias. The eye was supposed to come right over us in northern NJ but instead it veered to the west which put us on the east side of the storm, which is the windiest side. We have trees and power lines down all over the place. Did this happen to you too?

Thankfully no.  We lost power for about 10 minutes, but it came back on.  What we had was heavy flooding.  Two people from our area died when the water swept them away.

We lost power for 4 or 5 hours here in western MA.  Of course it went out 5 minutes before a television program I wanted to watch. LOL

Some homes are still without power That's crazy in this day and age. We were lucky. We didn't even have a lot of wind, and instead of the 3"-4" rain, were only got 1 plus."  Usually have flooding, too, but nothing. I guess it's because we desperately needed rain and the ground jus soaked it up as fast as it could, but next week isn't starting out good. Calling for rain every day and already under flash flood warning today.

I lost power a couple of times but not for long.
The longest outage was about an hour.
Hope everyone was safe there was a lot of tree damage around us. :rainbow: :peace: :wave:

Didn't lose power from Isaias, but because of a Fiber Outage in my area.  I had no access to the Net, had no WiFi for almost 5 days.  It was frustrating.

I'm in central Florida. We had very little affects from it. A nice breeze was about it.
