20 something would be nice here, Shawn. Want to put a fuel pump in my backhoe. 7* here now. Might go think about it.

Morning Virginia. Was kind of chilly putting a fuel pump on my backhoe yesterday. Probably should have waited until today when it might be 20* warmer but,..............

We have a nice 10* out with white out conditions. This is a snow lovers paradise. Snow-mobilers are happy.

Got power in Giles? Supposedly power out in Patrick but electric co site says no. A few fires started in Stuart area yesterday due to high winds and power lines.

Saw the power stats this AM and noticed Patrick had quite a bit out. Giles started off the AM OK but 2000 out now. There was a major power line clearing push in my area this summer (ever see those blades hanging by a cable from a helicopter? Impressive!) so that has helped a lot.

Looks something like this:

Photo one

Photo two

At any rate, the right of way clearing had made a big difference. Our power used to go out all of the time; it's been pretty solid since this summer. So far.
