We have weird shite going on with the power now. Stove clock is on and blanking and a couple of lights have come on, but are dim.


Probably have 1 out of 3 legs down on a pole but the fuse didn’t burn all the way through so you’re getting partial power through the 3rd leg

It doesn't look like it will last much longer.

It no longer has the confirmed tag, but it did tighten back up a bit.

I see it on the farm a lot. Power isn’t completely out but only get partial voltage. I’ll get 480v on 2 legs and 180 on the other. Try to cut a well on and the motor will hum but not turn

It’s enough to make small components like his clock and lights somewhat work but it will frick up major components like washer/dryer and HVAC if it’s trying to cut on

The best look at that storm is from the Columbus radar.

Should I unplug stuff? Even if it wasn't on when it went out?

i wouldn't worry about lamps, but computers, AC, and anything that was on might be a good idea to unplug.

I believe it, but that seems like an awful lot of pavement for Moulton.

I'm just giving Moulton shite. I can't help it. I think I'm contractually obligated to do it.
