Default power outage

Duke Power has over 200k without power this am.

I had to fire up the portable generator at 5am so my wife could get ready for work. I bet it takes over 1$ per hour to run it with these gas prices.

Powers on here, but it's storming really badly. I've got an Inspection starting at 8:30AM, and the lightning is fierce.

Update! The customer called and said their electric is out, so we re-scheduled for Friday. Now I can sit home on this rainy morning.

The power grid of the U.S. could go down for 3 weeks. Meet me at the Self Reliance Expo in Denver on Saturday.
