Working remote today.
Flashes of transformers blowing could be seen across the sky at 0 dark-thirty this morning.
Trees falling around me.
75,000 estimated without power. (fingers crossed)
Freezing rain changing to snow.
Tree next to the MM is touching the ground. (fingers and toes crossed)

HAD yellow valve covers!
Mike, hope your Marauder is safe.
Heard from Josh or Drew? Both have their Mercs outdoors.
I too am unfortunatley working from home.
Power is flickering on and off here.
Just walked the neighborhood. Trees are down and are coming down left and right. The sound of cracking and crashing branches is heard every other minute.
Cars are in a thick cocoon of ice.
Now, it's snowing hard.
Next time I venture out, I am taking my camera.

The pics above are from my bedroom window. The limbs from that tree are touching the ground approx. 20 feet off the MM.
If that tree snaps, most likely it will fall North with a high probability of impacting the MM.
My MM has the cover on it with a few inches of snow on top that may soften the blow unless it hits the side??
The tree is not that large, but a tree nonetheless.
I will try getting ahold of Drew, Josh and Charlie in a few.

Won't you hop inside my car?
I live in MD and work in VA and no problems other than a little slush. I drove the 35 mile commute yesterday and today at normal speeds. This was a storm?

Josh is fine even though he is without power at home.
His work is also without power.
Charlie replied to my text and is fine and at work.
Called Drew, and he was on the other line.
Just received a few power outages lasting about 2 minutes each.
Lights continue to blink off and on.
Mom lives in Middletown, and cannot get thru to her.
It has probably snowed 2 inches within the past hour.
190 motorists stranded and 900+ power lines down.
200,000 without power.

Right now it's a mess.
Snow is one thing. Ice is a different ball game.
Been digging out my beater and helping the neighbors with their rides.
Snow has stopped, and gonna grab the DSLR and head out.
Stay tuned...
Mike.
