"Yes, we’ve had more than a few of those, too. Difference is that they’re usually over in a few minutes."

Maybe we could ask someone from Tuscaloosa, AL about storms that are over in a few minutes....

There are regional differences in weather disaster by type. Some times one region is battered harder than another. Then it turns around.

Difference is, we not only pray for you all, but we often volunteer to help with the reconstruction. We never dismiss your weather extremes or minimize your losses. At least nobody I know does.

The last big major outage we had here was an ice storm about two years ago. Some folks up here in NH and Maine were without power for more than a month.

We got a lot of help from Canada with putting the grid back together. Not so much from the feds or our southern neighbors.
