My comment about our power still working in cold weather was in reference to Texas’ failure to winterize their infrastructure, resulting in the massive outages in February 2021.

The gusts are likely to cause outages in areas prone to them, however, this isn’t Texas and DE maintains the infrastructure so that it still works in cold temperatures. It would still be in everyone’s best interest to be prepared for an outage just in case, but as another commenter said, if you’re seeing a lot of trucks it means they’re ready to restore power as quickly as they can.

Santa and friends are visiting Lakeside from 6-8pm Friday night. Lakeside Rescue will post a tracking link on their Facebook when they arrive.

It’s my last day of work until next year! A two week staycation!!!

Wet

It went up a couple weeks ago, because Christmas was supposed to be on thanksgiving. Covid made sure we got neither.

Intermission has one

It’s Belle Isle not Belle Island

She does pets but I’m sure will let you be in it too

You just missed Fetch a Cure’s Pets on Parade

We brought home a new kitten yesterday! Her older brothers are saying some pretty rude things to her, but she doesn’t give a shit. I think one of them will be over it by tonight, though. The other might need a few more days.

I’ll keep a lookout!

You’re going to need to narrow down “the Henrico area”. Henrico is quite large.

Same. And I’m out of one of my meds! So my occasional sneeze really is (probably) allergies.

I’m so sorry

I commute about 20 miles two days a week. I try to leave by 7:00 so I can go home around 16:00, otherwise the bryan park interchange is a pain.

I’m excited to see some friends from out of town and then Taylor Tomlinson on Friday night!

Another for City Stadium Runners. On hiatus until the second Saturday in December, as most of them are doing marathon or half marathon training/HMTT needs the space we meet in for parking. All skill levels. TONS of run/walkers and usually a handful of walkers.

Hiked buttermilk this morning. Hanging out the rest of the day.

Avoid 95N. There was a massive crash (18 vehicles? Maybe?) around 3am and the interstate is still closed. Everyone is being diverted onto Parham Rd.

Vcc spike is a relief. Selling in the spring and am starting to worry it won’t go for enough to cover the new (build) house.

I may know someone, I’ll DM you

Haven’t seen it myself but that sounds de dumb as hell. 64E merging on there has had a sign for years that says left lane ends. Force them to merge into the right lane before it joins 95S.

Watching something spooky and waiting for trick or treaters. Probably eating the candy.

If that financial crisis could wait until we sell our house, that’d be great

Agreed!

Leaving work early to go to the Fetch a Cure event at Intermission Beer Co this evening at 5:00. No nagging questions or mysteries come to mind though.
