Ok, so for the second time in 5 months my county was declared a disaster area. The first time was in July when a tornado went through my town, we were out of power for 10 days. This time it was ice. We were without power for about 70 hours and the temperature never got above freezing during that time.
IT SUCKED!!!!!
Around Thursday at noon it started sleeting, then about 5 pm that evening it started to do freezing rain. The freezing rain continued until about midnight, coating EVERYTHING with an ass load of ice. Abou 8 pm Thursday our electricity went off.
There were transformers exploding (5 that I witnessed) and trees falling (that's scary as hell not knowing if a tree is going to fall on your house and hearing them go down all around).
Anyway, during July during the power outage cooling centers were set up so people didn't die from the heat, well this go around warming centers were set up so people didn't freeze to death.
I uploaded some pictures I took to my gallery. Click here to see.
I'm soooooooo glad the power is back on
