Well storm Eowyn was no joke. Damage around the house. 19 trees uprooted. Thankfully we're ok and no structural damage done. Pfeww. Longest night of my life - ThreadSky

Having been through some hurricanes in Florida I feel for you.

Big storms like that are sooo trying! Glad that you are ok! Very scary and no sleep, waiting for the roof to blow off. Good luk with no power. Wishing you a hot tea at some point!

Holy shitsticks. 😨 I'm glad you're safe and things are relatively okay.

Still no power but we've a fire going. Camping gear for cooking and candles so we're good for a bit. ...oh and a battery powered radio :)

Good old fireplace.

Time to think about an windmill ? :)

bgollie.bsky.social•28 days ago

Prob not all the home windmills around here either burned up or were flattened

d0pamine.bsky.social•28 days ago

With a system to retract them when the wind is to strong :).

My son is starting to code Arduinos. That could be a nice project :)

bgollie.bsky.social•27 days ago

Actually speaking of windmills 😀 , they didn't have a good time either

d0pamine.bsky.social•27 days ago

See ? Told you that if you fold them it would work like a charm :)

bgollie.bsky.social•28 days ago

Yeah, some had folded theirs pre-emptively but it still snapped the blades. You'd have to take it down altogether in wind like that. Sustained wind gusts were recorded at around 183khm and then the weather station off the coast broke down and went silent as the storm still increased.

Still no electricity . Prob not for a week at least but we're ok and so is the house

d0pamine.bsky.social•29 days ago

Glad that you and the house are ok.

Do you have a generator to get some power ?
