Re: Long outage in York Pa.

Some places I'm sure are going to have a disaster scenario, we didn't have a ton of snow so we are in the "just a pain in the butt" zone unless a big branch hit your house.

If the snow would have waited 2 weeks and the leaves were gone from the trees it would have been just another weekend toilet paper and bread snow.

I never saw tree limbs so close to the ground, the area around my house looked entirely alien. I had a 12 foot witch hazel bend down to about 2 foot tall and my maple had just the tip sticking up the rest of the branches bent to the ground, it's a young one so they didn't break.

this is good practice of the disaster response plans, get all the kinks out early on before the real storms hit in December through March

lol we are but I prefer earning my money by offering unparallelled service and performance. You see I'm a Comcast customer too, so I want the most eye exploding HD channels, the most extreme razor sharp video never before seen- something that will make bluray look like a 1930's newsreel, the clearest audio that will make you feel like your right there in the middle of the scene with the actors talking directly into your mind. I want Comcast to be so ahead of the technological curve, they create the curve that others must follow. They redefine the term "trailblazer" and then rename it "Xfinity". Anyway I digress.

This snow storm reminds me of the 2010 snowmageddon Dallas-Fort Worth Texas got 14" on average across the metroplex from what was a stalled out low pressure that looked like a hurricane and shattered a record for amount of snow in one season and one event. Texas does not get 14" at one time usually.

Re: Long outage in York Pa.

possibly a volcano or river of lava? anyway from what I've been hearing its possible that this could be an early indication of a severe winter, worse then the december 26th 2010 storm, worse then that december 20th 2009 storm even. i'm just glad that no one got hurt by me.

Actually the mosquito plague is allready a problem. All our bats died of some desease so now the mosquitos are a problem. That started last year and became a warning this year. knock on wood my power stayed on but i have a few trees to cut up that fell. God rest my apple tree and oak next to the garage.
