It's been raining like heck today. Working in it has been a pain. When I showed up at FedX yesterday they had metal roof panels strewed all over. the field from last Fridays havoc. The gals told me it was a mess and the roofers were still working on it. I got over to DHL and the parking lot was covered in broken limbs. Bearly had a place to park.
Last evening I was at a clients house about 20 miles east from the house and they had an awning that had tore off and the post went through the window.
Chains are required north, east, and west of the house. The nearest being about 5 miles from here. Since we are at the edge of the foothills we really just get to look at the snow most of the time which is ok with me. BRRRRR.
We actually have been lucky. So far, a fence panel that I haven't installed yet fell over but looks intact. The roof is holdin...knock on wood. But it's colder than the dickens out. My hands turned red today within several minutes of being outside.
Guess I'll Live.
I feel lucky having a newer fence. I did see many older fences blown over and a couple of really expensive solar panels the city had put up over by the airport had broke off at the base. Power outages have been spotty. We seldom see no more than a flicker since we are 10 minutes from the largest hydroelectric units in the state.
