DeSantis said Charlotte and Lee county power grids are almost going to have to be completely rebuilt.

Maybe it will scare liberals from moving there?

There’s that pesky CO2 at work again! It’s a bad, jumping, gas, gas, gas.

Thank God DeSantis evacuated those Illegals in time.

Loss of power is a given when hit by a hurricane or tropical storm.

Many years ago a hurricane hit Western Ma. I was the GM of a large CATV system. We got shredded that day. Miles of plant were on the ground and it would take a lot of work to get it back on the poles.

We started getting calls about 1 PM from people who were absolutely livid that we would not have things put back together for Monday Night Football, which was starting in 8 hours.

People have warped expectations of how companies recover from these types of disasters.

consider it a previews of life under the Democrat regime if all of the “green new deal” insanity is implemented

On another related matter has anyone heard anything about people evacuating in their battery electric cars? How far did they get? Were they able to recharge, etc,?

Me. Since last night. We’re in Palm Bay on the east coast. The wind was 0 this morning but has kicked back up to 25 mph so they won’t even try to assess what went wrong until much later or tomorrow. My son is 15 miles North and has power.

Florida knows how to handle stuff like this, although this is a really big one. Before the storm made landfall the state had mustered more than 10,000 utility workers and vehicles in Lakeland to get on the repairs as soon as it was safe to do so.... There are reports already this morning that more than half a million have had power restored. It’ll take a while for sure, but it’s not like the State (or DeSantis) put off thinking about how to cope.

One distraught EV owner, whose battery died, was heard yelling:
My EV for a horse!

So far, no takers.

Masks prevent the spread of hurricanes and we all know DeSantis prevented that form happening. His hubris brought this on. He ignored the silence on Covid like he ignored the science on Hurricanes.

All this and more tripe coming to a Charlie Crust near you.

Sucks to be a “proud” EV owner.

Over 2 million Floridians without power EV charging capability — as Ian causes major damage to state’s power grid"

““life-changing effects” from widespread and catastrophic damage to the state’s electrical grid that will take days, and in some cases weeks, to fully fix. “

so much for EVs ... at least with ICE cars, small gens can power gas station pumps ...

can you imagine if ALL of the 2 million without power had only EVs to drive?

The Enemy Media is going to paint this as DeSantis’ ‘Katrina.’

Place your bets. It’s a sure thing! *SPIT*
