Luckily his power is out and he has no Internet - you still have time to delete those hurtful remarks before he sees them. :funniest:
He knows it’s true. :leaving:





In all seriousness, though. The storm surge and flooding in Fort Myers looks bad. I hope they’re doing ok. :nonod:

How's the power situation now? I have friends over there who have been out all night as well. Stay safe.

Glad you are safe man ! But I have to say I am surprised that you don't have whole house generator

dwjz06 09-29-2022 8:07am
Hope you are ok. Getting it now here. Gusts are over 60mph Rain amounts are insane.

Priorities, have you seen the cost of tires lately?

and put in a transfer switch. Those extension cords are dangerous.

Strats-N-Vettes 09-29-2022 11:20am

So you got all those extension cords running everywhere but you decided to run them under that throw rug going down the hallway. Guess you won't trip over the rest of the cords not run under a carpet. :rofl:

On a serious note, I hope you guys made it through safe and with minimal damage.

Wind gusts currently between 65 and 70 mph, and the next 6 hours or so are going to be pretty nasty. Power is still on, but I'm switched over for what I need it for. Only last thing to plug into it will be the main refrigerator. No hint of overloading, but the number of extension cords running through the house is comical. :lol:

I’m gonna guess they have no power, internet or even cell service right now

Does it concern anyone else that Craig has extension cords running all over his house and Aerovette is posting in this thread? :skep:
