Weather alert

[I_UndergroundPanther]

Got two weather alerts on my phone.

Flash flooding. Until 9 pm.

And storms.

The sky outside my window is really dark and ominous.

Take shelter and don't go out unless you have to.

I live in Harford co.maryland.

5. I used to love going crabbing on the Pax.

A cooler full of beer, a cooler for the crabs, some twine, a dozen chicken necks, and a net. That was living.

7. That Phone Alert Thing Is Excellent

We got alerted to a high wind, possibly tornadic storm, with high potential for lightening strikes.
I went out to the garage and prepped everything, including running the main cords to power the kitchen, rec room, utility room, and kitchen.
I was 10 seconds from being done when the power went out. I pulled the generator outside, started it, and had the power on within a couple minutes.
Both fridges, freezer, TVs, lamps, etc.
Power was out around 9 hours, and because of that alert, we went 2 minutes without power. And I was able to do almost all the set up without working in the dark.

8. I'm glad you are okay.

We had a few light flickers. Apartment has solar panels.

9. Solar Panels

BTW: my story happened last summer. Your OP reminded me of it.
Solar panels would be a killer cost for us.
Not the panels & power wall itself, but we'd have to cut down 5 trees, at least 60 years old and 40 feet tall.
We'd be looking at $60,000 minimum just for the trees. The panels would cost around $35k.
We'd have to take a mortgage for nearly 40% of what the house is worth. A 15 year mortgage starting when we're in our mid 60s seems silly.
I wish it weren't so.

10. That sucks.

Sad you can't get solar.
I live in HUD housing. When I lived in a house my mom owned and took care of it would have been impossible to get solar panels too.
