Power is back on here. After two days without, one definitely appreciates the luxury of being able to flip on a light.

According to the official numbers, the peak wind gust in my neighborhood was 102mph. Suffice to say I didn't get my bike ride in yesterday... otherwise all seems well at this point, though.

[Now looking harder at vehicle-to-home power solutions.]

@corbet I know, right? It feels so dumb to have 80kwh sitting useless in your driveway when you have to wear a headlamp to go pee.

"102mph" ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

Wow, don't think I've ever experienced gusts over 70mph and that was bad enough. There must be a lot of structural damage in your neighborhood.

@corbet Reminds me of my time in Colorado, though experienced 102mph gusts. Glad itโ€™s over.
