Tens of thousands are without power Tuesday as a weather system packing powerful winds and arctic temperatures continues to roar across Massachusetts, downing power lines and knocking a massive tree into a Westborough home.

Winds routinely reached 50 miles per hour across Massachusetts Monday night and into Tuesday with some communities reporting 60 mile-per-hour gusts. The National Weather Service issued a wind advisory for most of the state that will remain in effect until 3 p.m. Tuesday.

The windmills have not rotated even once in the the 5 years I’ve lived here. They just tower over the quaint historical landscape of Plymouth County, dwarfing the 300-year-old farmhouses and sea-captains’ mansions. Still as a grave.

And last week the solar farms were covered in snow.

And they TORE DOWN a perfectly good clean-coal power plant in Fall River because the cooling towers REMINDED people of Nuclear Power. I am NOT making this up.

No...they spent the money that should have gone to burying the power lines on “Gender Studies” and “reparations”! When I call out the losers who mismanage my town for the same reasons they start snarling like dogs!

Whatever absurdity one can dream up today is outdone by reality. You are looking at it everyday it sounds like.

This happened in Connecticut as well. I went out for my daily walk this morning and it was 19 degrees. Normally not so bad, I'm used to that temperature because it is still winter.

But it was very windy and therefore I felt cold.

Idiots...too woke to live. We have one of those clean burning power plants here, but I believe it operates on natural gas.

Yes. It’s larger than life around here. The windmills are as tall as the pylons at Karnak, and just as DEAD.
