Yeah Jim knows where the worst weather will be and TWC flies him there. I've heard he's been threatened on site! LOL
We had the proverbial "thundersnow" this morning several times and the lights flickered each time. Must have been pretty intense as that doesn't normally happen during regular thunderstorms. They say the thunder is muffled by the snow.
Anyway the power finally did cut out for a couple of hours and there were widespread power outages in the area.
My Tripp-Lite APS750 inverter came through like a champ and kept my home RAS working. The yellow perch would have been floating without it. I was a little concerned as I only have two deep cycle batteries on it for 7.5 hours back up.
Not only does it automatically convert DC to AC, it goes right back to AC mode and starts charging the batteries back up.
Glad I have netting over the tank. Whenever the lights flicker, go out, or come back on the fish freak.
Snow has backed off and will be out of the area in a couple of hours but drifting is intense. The driveway is hardly visible for what seems like 8th time or so. The snowblower is worth its weight in gold this winter!
It will be interesting to hear what Scott (Esshup) and Cody have to say.
