Would recommend not trying to heat up your home in this time of need.

Pingui posted:Sounds like it is time to realign the chart to the new normal. I was super close to the CA caldor fire. Blood red sky at noon, burning coals raining down the size of golf balls. The aqi about half way thru the event surpassed 500 which is as high as the scale goes. They figure it got into the mid 7s. I later asked a firefighter acquaintance why the don’t raise the scale and his response was something like “what so they can tell you to stay in doors harder?”

we got shitrocked last night. by this here bad boy. https://twitter.com/HRRRing/status/1669158113629413376?s=20 power out of course and 90+ degree heat. drove around all day listening to an audio book so i could have aircon. power company 12+ hours in is still saying "we have not yet determined an estimated time for restoration of service." apartment complex sends me email saying the power company told them it would take "days" to get power back. anyway it just came back on and i'm gonna get drunk.

Finally got power back in MS after being off since Friday. The Saturday storm made it worse, at least I got to see a lighting strike up close and personal, about 15 yards out.

That’s wild. Were you indoors or in a car for it? That takes a bit of the stress out of being that close to 1.21 jiggawatts.

Nature man, wild poo poo. nothing idiotic about it necessarily, there’s no real way to know when or where lightning is gonna strike within a broad radius of conditions being appropriate. sometimes you just gotta be outside, or are under the eaves reading because you’re in your home. my one close up experience was during a gentle spring shower on the screen porch and BLAMMO all of a sudden this big azalea in the back yard got smoked. you could see the bolt spread out along the ground all crackly, it was absolutely nuts. never again, hopefully haha

I was hiding under an awning in a public park when I saw lightning strike a power line transformer from about 30 yards once. It was literally awe inspiring.

When I was a teen, I went backpacking with some friends, and we camped on top of a tall mountain (tallest for 30 miles around) when a crazy thunderstorm kicked up. Two inches of hail, our hair was standing on end, St. Elmos Fire, and we could smell ozone. Definitely the closest I've ever come to dying.
