It is to be a mess [ my meteorological term ] --

Just so y'all know if I'm not around in here --
Do have a battery in the laptop --
But not going to run it down --

Duke Energy sent out notices to customers this morning --
There will be power outages for about 500,000 customers

Not something usually done by them --

So, this screenshot was taken from the NOAA page --
They are pretty good at forecaststs --

Pam knows --

Yes, Andy --
We do have different terms ~
3 a week ?..

Isn't there a map of some sort showing where the power cables are?
Over here nobody can dig for anything without checking with Power Co. -- the Company comes out and puts small flags showing where the underground cables are..

Right now, it is the "quiet before the storm"-----

In theory, yes. In practice ...
Many mistakes are made! Hopefully it will settle down soon.
Also, in European cities, we tend to bury things rather than string it all up on poles! Means it's harder not to make a mistake I guess, even with sophisticated maps of the grids!

Should you have to deal with hurricanes, floods and snow?

Dick,
Thought we left the hurricanes for y'all ...
Snow -- we expected some, but nothing like this ..

Floods --- don't live near any body of water -- have seen the damage done. You couldn't pay me to live near a lake, river, or whatever ...
Yes, we have what I call a creek / river out back -- on the City easement the water flows on down to the storm drain.
City keeps the drain cleaned out ... so far --- so good.

Now, about those hurricanes ... what address can I use to send them back? Should I just go ahead and send to Grady at PCSO ?
