ZOT LIGHTNING Ping List abused for you, dear Tex!
Things are all right here in NE Ohio. The house is still standing, the power didn't falter, the 2-1/2" of rain didn't flood the property, and none of our trees fell anywhere near the house.
I'm on my knees thanking God for being spared any damage or flooding.
I’m thankful you all are ok!
Very glad to read you’re safe, Lady.
PINGING THE OHIO LIST
We lost power around 2 or 3 AM, and have an electric sump pump in the basement. (It pumps water from the footer drain to an outside drain.)
Later that morning I found a company that rents generators and he had two, so we were able to have the pump working by noon.
My neighbor told me tha O’Rilley auto parts (in Eastlake) was bringing in a truck load of generators, and I was lucky to buy a 5000/6000 watt generator sight unseen, it now is in the garage and I may start to assemble it this weekend.
We had 1 inch of water above the floor by our bottom stair, and about 2 or 3 inches by the low end where the sump is.
Power came back on around 3:15 in the afternoon, and the cleanup started.
(About 10 years ago, we had the same thing happen, what a mess then, and now!)
Thank God that we only lost a few old items!
Glad you are OK. We need the rain in Texas. Send any extra our way.
