This weekend i think we got around 8in of rain form Ike. Damn that was alot of rain.

disco

My power is out but my roof is still on.  I lost an oak and little whirlybird attic vent on the garage.  I have a neighbor that works for the power company and he said we are looking at about a week before power is restored. My house is all electric but I got food and water stocked.     I'm posting from my phone at work. I got nothing at home for cell signal. That sucks.  I get away from the house and all the emails, voicemails and text messages come pouring in. 

The wind was pretty crazy. I konked out around 6 pm. I figured once the winds started I wouldn't be sleeping too much. I was still able to sleep through parts of it. I propped the back door open a few inches for some fresh air.  When the wind really started howling I'd wake up hear all the trees creaking outside. I heard a few come down.

Now kind of a rant:  never before have I heard so much pissing and moaning about the power being out. Its a stinking hurricane 200 miles wide. You know its coming.  Prepare for it!  Yeah it sucks living in the dark and a/c sure is nice. Saturday afternoon once the wind died down, everybody is out driving around checking stuff out. These same people are the ones fighting in line at the gas pumps.

Sorry for your luck disco, but glad to hear you are okay.   :thumbs:

The future father-inlaw got his water back on yesterday, but still no power.

We had an ice storm back in 2000, and some people were without power for 45 days.

It sucks. Thank GERD we were out for only 9 hours.
