Western North Carolina got hammered. I'm one of the few people in my neighborhood with power. Asheville got cut off from all but airlifts. Amazing to see what happens when the once in a lifetime thing hits the infrastructure not built for the once in a lifetime thing.

Glad you're ok iggy. Airlifts! People on rooftops?

It is pretty nuts. Three more currently in play, with hurricane warnings for Spain as one seems likely to travel east!!

Glad you’re okay Iggy. These “once in a lifetime” events sure do seem to be happening a lot more! I was affected by the storms in August that crippled NE Ohio. I left work early to race the storm home since I have an hour commute and just hit town as soon as it began. We had no power for days and hotels were charging hundreds of dollars a night. It was crazy to see the dozens of vehicles staging from the electric company at schools and stadiums. Fortunately I had plenty of water and beer to get me through it!
