CA power outage :(
- Thread starter Beman
- Start date
Yeah it was a crazy mess here. They took us down then brought us back up after 36 hours. Then gave us another shut off notice for yesterday after 12 hours with power. Then they decided that the wind would not be high enough here and canceled it. Generators are getting stolen from yards here at night. Pretty crazy over all. I bought 2 inverters for my car and will be parking my car in the back yard behind our gate and at least will be able to run Beman's heat lamp for a while during the day along with having a way to charge our phones and my laptop for work. Had to upgrade cell coverage to include a hotspot for work. We aren't doing a generator due to them being stolen and having no place to store it or the gas.
We are better off then most though. We at least have heat, hot water, running water, and a gas stove to cook. Our neighbor is 70 and he does not even have heat. Lots of people in the surrounding areas that are on well water that do not even have water due to no electric to run the well. So I am counting our blessings and trying not to get frustrated over what appears to be the new normal here in Cali.
Glad yall are safe!
