Hey Nauti:
I am in the Harris county part of Friendswood and got power back last night at 10pm or so. All of our power cables are underground. The transformer is at the end of the street and I assume they cut us off preemptively on Friday night at 7pm(sharp) before it got bad and that transformer never blew. I had made ice for 2 solid days and had about 50lbs block ice in my 2 freezers (plus lots and lots of beef, pork, chicken, etc.) For future reference-the blocks last far longer than the cubes. Only problem with the blocks is they are too big to put in my gin and tonic. We are ok here. Twister took out my 20 year old pine tree (sparing my car) and deposited my neighbor’s trampoline (200lbs +) on my patio. Just got word my daughter in Pasadena has power.
What pictures did you have of Bolivar?
Thanks
