Minus the flooding it sounds like your typical Cat 1 through 3 hurricane aftermath.

In Sept 2004 I went 20 days with no power and in Oct 2005 I went 1 week.

I now have a 15 k/w standby generator that not only runs my entire house but my A/C as well, we just do not have the hot water heater hooked to it and the range. Thats what the Weber Grill is for.

After a couple of storms you have a great game plan in place, I have a irrigation well that I can hook up to my house for water if we loose city water. We have many little tricks now so we are not miserable after the storm. It is the worst being without air in 100% humidity and 90+ temps.


futures - you just went through a week of Hell on earth. I hope you can get some relaxation soon.
