drat this is what my Dad is always talking about.

My son, here's why I live in Pennsylvania: no tornadoes, no earthquakes, no hurricanes, no droughts, no wildfires.

I'm like, Virginia's basically the same, right?

it's actually processed coal ash used to make concrete that they're importing, because nobody's processing the local poison piles for some reason (i'm guessing it's mostly to own the libs since apparently it's financially viable to have the stuff shipped in from the other side of the planet)

Was there actually a unique disaster tied to that powerplant as the description suggests?

Yes sometimes the satilite "misses" the building and starts a fire. If you also have a nuke plant it might hit that and it's really bad.

sounds rough dude

Luckily the previous owners of our house installed a natural-gas powered generator, which I thought was stupid until this week. My neighbor's food is in our fridge. They can see the tree lying on the power lines running along Route 1 from their window, just sitting there. Power is 100% not coming on until that's cleared.

Tree crews are completely overwhelmed due to a lack of preventative trimming.

Pretty sure every house in our neighborhood was built with a gas fireplace at least, so it's not so bad.

my parents have been without power in Virginia for the last three days due to the storm.

the only way they're able to charge their phones is by idling their car.

my dad owns three dozen guns but has no idea how to plan for an emergency.

obviously his plan is to kill and eat someone with a generator

we're not hard to find generators are loud as hell

my dad got one too after losing power for days a few years back.

they should figure out how to bury lines so that people dont have to buy a giant engine...i mean they bury the drat gas!

So all the powerlines in our development, which is a couple hundred homes, are underground. BUT they are fed from the above ground lines that run along the highway. This wouldn't be any kind of problem if they trimmed the loving trees back!
