Knowledge is Your Power For The Freedom of a Worry- Free Home!

I wrote this post on Friday night, but it was lost. And did not upload.

I a woke Friday mornen to pretty ugly, we had a really bad ice storm came a visiten Thu. night.

I a woke around 3:30 A.M., as I do every mornen. It felt a bit cool in the house. So I went out to the liven room to turn up the heat. Went to turn on the liven room light. But it did not come on, so I got the small fleshlight that I keep near by in the liven room. Turned up the thermostat, but the furnace did not fire up. So I took a look at it, everything was fine with it except there was no exectricity getten to it.

So I went outside to see if anything was a go-en on out there. Will there was ice every were. No kind of lights on any were at all. Went back in to the house and got our emergency radio and turned it on. Power was out for 300,00 folk's in the State of New Hampshire. From the ice storm that came to visit us.

Gov. Lynch issued a State of Emergency for the State of New Hampshire about 9:00 A.M. Friday mornen. He urged all the folk's of New Hampshire, to heed all public officials warnings.

There were trees and limbs down on the roads of many communities, there were trees and limbs that were bent over that formed icy arches. That drivers had to navigate around on very icy roads. We still had pouring rain and sleet comen down. Fire departments were responding to calls of tranformer explosions, and utility poles and wires that were down. Trees that were burning on wires, and of trees that had fallen on to homes in areas.

The State Emergency Management Operations Center was opened, and some of the towns opened emergency shelters for folk's to come to.

There were hundreds of roads that had to be closed all over the State. The police warn folk's to not go out on the roads. Right in the area of 600 Schools and organizations were closed.

Will I told my lady, there just was no way that I could stay home, when I knew there were folk's needing help. She was not real happy about it, but she knows how I am. I loaded what I thought, I'd need in my Jeepy and took off. As I was out driven. I took some photos of areas I was in.
