Power went out about 30 minutes ago. I’m in the Champions area, north of 1960 south of Cypresswood. Little gusty and periods of heavy rain. Just basically a steady rain at this point.

Watching winds getting sketchy now. Around noon-3pm will be nasty.

Gotta love having a new 8’ fence ready for a fresh demo SMH

Just lost power in Spring Valley.

There have been some house shaking gust at times. Pissing rain. Saw the blue/green lighting. Didn’t know if that was real or if i was tripping balls. It was coming from multiple directions.

The “blue lightning” is a transformer arcing. Saw several near me followed by an outage soon after.

At least your insurance company can’t nickel and dime you on depreciation. It was a new fence.

I’m in Prague right now but monitoring this closely… my house is located near Washington and TC Jester, my ring cameras are still kicking out live monitoring so I guess we are still hanging in there in that area.
