Think about the people who have refrigerated medications or are on some sort of life support device at home. We have a freezer full of breast milk that my wife pumped for when she's at work.

I don't have a big stash right now but I normally have thousands of dollars worth of insulin in my fridge... And I've had to move it to another house when our power was out for a few days after a storm. It's a pain.

our utility company told us that we've been warned & we're on our own to find electricity for our own homes 'cause they aren't going to help. This is how the utility pays us back for suing them for billions for not trimming the trees back from the powerlines like they agreed to do. It's payback.

This is the real danger right here, people needing electric medical devices, and/or temperature controlled meds.

Yeah the triple digits are not fun, where I live we are averaging 110 to 112 and it doesn't peak until about 5:30 at night. It also doesn't cool down until about 5:30 in the morning at which point the low has been around 83 to 85 πŸ˜‚. We haven't had our power forcibly shut down yet. 🀞🏻

You can buy dry ice and put it in there, but you need to be careful when retrieving it.

Depends how the person votes. If they support biden then dip your hands in water and grab handfuls of that dry ice.

Last year they had lines of cars waiting to buy dry ice. I think the wait was around 3 hours. Only one place around here sells it to the public!

Go to a Smart & Final. They sell it there. Go as soon as possible if they're cutting power in your area.

Fortunately, I stocked up on dry ice after the last time. Got a whole shelf full of it right here in my hall closet...

Lost over $1,500 in food last year during our 5 day blackout. Now we have a generator hard wired into the house. It runs the inside fridge and the garage freezer.

My generator is running right now here in Oregon. Power went out a few hours ago.

We have high winds coming from the east and blowing hot, dry air and smoke from inland fires here. There were reports of arcing power lines as well, so most likely either the wind took out a line or they shut it down as a precaution until they could check the lines. It's back on now after being out for about four hours.

The air quality is terrible with all the smoke, but at least it actually makes sense to wear a mask today!

Would you mind just making sure it’s not a dude in an all black ninja looking costume caught in the power lines frying alive. Hope.
