So we got over 75 mph winds. took the roof off and tore down all kinds of trees and power lines. Power wont be fully restored for over 3 days. Im using the trans am battery and some ghetto rigging and a power inverter to run my modem and wireless/charger for my internet

beat that mcgyver!

McGuyver would have done it with a nine volt and a chewing gum wrapper......

i'd take that over the 100+ mph winds and a month timeframe before we see power restored.

It's pretty bad here in Lexington as well. Power lines and trees down everywhere. Lots of roof damage.

what is this high winds you speak off?

**axxdet** · 09-14-2008, 02:06 PM

it's been raining in MI for the last two days in spots seeing 10" of rain, just starting to lighten up right now

So our area blew the main power grid. We have about 15 trees down and my uncles new house is missing part of its roof. No power for 5 days. That means no work for me. Still operating the modem/lappie off the trans am battery. This sucks guys.

The only light in my house is the bright shiny glow of ls1.com!

^^^agreed. this storm has been a bitch to everyone it's met

75MPH winds??

Try 100MPH with snow falling.

Is the KY plant okay at least?? I can deal with gas prices going up, but if KY jumps...things might get a little tight around here.
