    It's funny, I hadn't heard anything about these storms until I came into work today and everyone was freaking out about them. I dunno, perhaps I've been living under a rock...

    Anyway, thanks for the heads up :p

    You're not alone there I think there are a lot of ohio people on this forum! Im in Pittsburgh and we are usually OK, last time I remember losing power for an extended period of time was snowmegeddon. Makes me really think about investing in a quality battery backup to at least be able to run powerheads during an outage if nothing else

    yeah, we're still cleaning up around here too. We've dodged a few these last 2 weeks, lets hope we dodge this one too!

    yea i want to look into a battery backup. Generator is nice but a pain in the power is only going to be out for a few hours.

    hopefully everyone is well prepared for some power outages!

    In Montana we don't lose power much anymore, but my wife and I are still looking to set up the tank stuff on a dedicated generator circuit just in case.
