How exactly do you deal with that in 165 mph winds? Climb up there with a firehose? And look at the forests below it. Did they then catch fire?

We drove by a line of those in WV over Thanksgiving. I’d never seen them so close, and they are HUGE. My thought at the time was a prayer that none came tumbling down as we drove by. There’s something creepy looking about them.

It looks like it’s not just on fire. It looks like the turbine is turning into plasma.
