Subject: Re: 22 DEC 22 by teebee on 2022/12/22 14:13:39 Well, yesterday was a pretty nice day. Very little wind, temps in the 40s. Headed over to the 'city' to take GGD back to grandson/GD-in-law. Did a little shopping for Christmas Eve gathering. When we got back, I noticed the flags at the cemetery were hanging straight down and the temp on the pickup said 41. Stopped at the storage shed and picked up the generator (in prep). By the time we got home the breeze started up. Unpacked and a friend down the street asked us to come over. Walked down and the wind was howling and the temps had dropped to 21. When we left their house and an hour later is was blowing about 35-40 mph and it was 9 degrees and the electricity went out. At 10:15, with no electricity, we decided we may as well go to bed. and the temps had dropped to -3. Electricity came back on , then went back off until sometime after midnight. This morning it was -9 and the wind is only blowing about 20-25 mph. Supposed to stay this way through tomorrow night. I'm thinking it is a good day to just hunker down in the house. |
