Ice Storms

2007 Dec 11

So, if you've been trying to get onto swag, chances are you've noticed we've been up and down a little. Unfortunately ice storms in the Oklahoma area have affected our (free & wonderful) host. I'm at the facility right now helping out as much as possible. I think the worst of it is over, but you never really know.

Ha ha... Not THAT bad, but there have been more than half a million people in Oklahoma who have lost power. LOTS of frozen trees and branches strewn everywhere.

I was one of that half a million. I had no power for about 4 days and I must say it certainly sucks, especially since a snow storm is about to blow in and most people haven't gotten there power back from the last one.

Mathurin,

I heard Tulsa area was hit REALLY hard. You get electricity back yet?

Stu,

No man, NOTHING like that... that's insane. OKC's already been declared a disaster area, if it had been anything even moderately close to that... I don't know what the outcome would be... I think I'd move.

Yeah I got power back last Thursday morning. It was out for about 4 days for me, but I live near a power plant, there are still a lot of people out. Thankfully the storm this last weekend never materialized.

Eclipse

Yeah, I was afraid we'd get really blasted. I wouldn't have minded horribly, but are probably a lot of people who couldn't have made it through a 2nd round, so it's for the best.

Glad you got power back.

Its been hot and cold in Tupelo, Mississippi. One day hot, the next cold, and then a few days hot and then cold again. I wish it would pick one and go with it. Talk about making one sick.
