Is everybody out there OK?
I put up the title and then started to think.
If you don't have electric power and internet, don't bother to answer. (Can you say DUH?)
The big line squall came through here last night and we have been out of power and broadband both since late last night. I just noticed that KenB said they got part of it and I got messages when I first got wire that both Cleveland and Pittsburgh got hit pretty hard. That has to mean that a lot of others did too.
"Alright Smartass - how are you doing what you are doing"
Well, traveling by GMC gets one good practice at using battery power and tethering to your phone. I have to either go out and buy more gas if I can find a station with power, or get out all the long cables and connectors to run the house from the GMC (nice to have a redundant backup). I'll get those cables laid out before dark just in case the power company misses their target and/or something happens to the 40yo Honda running the house right now.
