No power until Saturday July 8th here. It's a joke.

I saw some guys fighting at a gas station. Everyone was trying to get gas for their generators, and some dude was filling up his jet ski. Dude had some balls to try something like that.

He's entitled to the gas just like everyone else.

I'm still out of power at my place. The president of our company had the nerve to tell everyone to come in tomorrow even though the building doesn't have power.

I checked the Ohio Edison outage map. Seven houses in my township are w/o power. I'm one of them. Yay! Maybe tonight or tomorrow. At least I have a friend's house I can drink beer, do drugs and pass out in front of the TV at, so life's still pretty damn good!

I've heard many of the rest homes and hospitals are having trouble with their generators and the Athens hospital had to transfer all their patients.

This isn't really setting up like a bull blown derecho like Friday, just the squall lines we usually get in the summer.

Yeah, I mean they're still severe thunderstorms and will be windy as shit, but it shouldn't be widespread hurricane force wind blowing half of the state over all at once.

looks like the strongest part is just north of Columbus. Weather.com projections have it slightly breaking up before it gets here, let's hope it's right.

just regular T-storms and rain down in southern ohio, thankfully. Shouldn't be any different from any other summer storm.
