Are you keeping the lights on :drama

We just had a nice little T-Storm roll through town and the radio is saying power poles are down about a half mile from Sleek works(Electric Company). At least the crews won't have to drive far. That is after they call them all back in from the bars :beer

Channel 3 did show some poles down in T-Town.  Dom't remember what the road was they were looking at.

Man was that a freaking dust storm or what.  No rain here though.

Just a whole bunch of dust followed by 33 drops of rain here.  Just enough to make my work truck look like crap and make me have to wash it tomorrow.

All I have got to say is that anyone who thinks monsoonal/t-storm weather is "neat"... they are more than welcome to come spend an evening answering phones and clearing downed lines.

Lost quite a few poles East of I-10.  Had lines down across the interstate... traffic never slowed a bit.  :beat  :beat

I like the bigger storms at the end of the summer.  The ones that hit the lake fast and send everyone running for the dock all at once.  I sit in my office and watch them out the window.
