Severe Weather ?

Pretty good winds last night. Still could put a kite with ease

 

Local news reporting a gust of 52mph, in this area.

It's been breezy, then very gusty. It can stop any time now.

No damage.

 

Too much wind here today.....

 

Wind doesn't normally affect my power, but I had several brown outs and then it started flickering badly shortly before noon yesterday. Minor flickers don't really bother me, but bigger stuff takes out my modem so I lose connectivity to work until it resets (about 5 minutes). After several cycles with the modem, I finally texted the boss and told her I'd just take the rest of the day off. The UPS's on the pellet stoves were going on a regular basis (they beep when they are in use), and my alarm clock went off once (it resets everything to noon, including the alarm). Winds reduced about 4 and once the sun went down became mild.

Edit - Tree took wire and several poles down on the main road in town near the substation - guess I was lucky not to loose power outright.

 

We'll see if or where this hits tomorrow, if it hits in ole buZZsaw BRAD 's area, he'll need another truck.

 

I'll take the torrential rainfall, thank you!

 

I agree. Be nice if the roof shingles could stay on the house.

 

Here we go with qualifiers

 

Qualifiers.. Ok... I could have said my roof is bad and if the wind blows hard again more shingles will come off..

 

I get some wind.. I had a tornado f-0 not big for Kansas; another time flipped a 20 foot above ground pool filled 3.5 feet deep upside down.. blew up transformer on pole

blows facia off house BUT through hurricane nailing and grace of god shingles have stayed on new roofs 7 years!! Good luck with roof

 

2x

 

Geez, i hope not. Dont need more wood thats for sure. Enough to be had from the two storms last August (TS Isaias and tornado)

 

I can't believe you actually said that!
I'm actually looking forward to a summer watching everyone else hoard BUT me All I plan to go after is the stuff next door but all that hoarding in the heat gets old fast... I had my share last year.

 

Ill believe that when i see it...or dont see it.

 

bring on the torrential rains!

 

This was today in Syracuse New York, I wonder if Woodsnwoods received any of this.

The storm over Syracuse on Wednesday, May 26, 2021.A.T. McLean | Skytop Aerials

Over 10,000 lose power as storm hits Central NY, topples trees and wires

 

Glad we didn't get any of that. The barn is already insured. Have had on and off showers since about 11 am. The last one was a down pour but didn't last long.

 

It's still very warm out up here with some good steady winds but we still haven't received any rain.

 

I’ve had torrential sprinkles maybe an 1/8’of inch

 

Thats a new one ive never heard. Ever get torrential drizzle?
