Sandy, that windy bitch

[nt650hawk]

Possible high winds around Halloween. Good thing I’ve got my new saw. I need to break it in

[Tricky Mike]

Bleh... I just bought an 18' pole saw (there's a joke here somewhere). Looks like I'll be doing some trimming this week.

[Paul_E_D]

I'll be getting some MACKING surf.

[burnham]

Sweet. I'm on call at the light department, just like this time last year.

[TheIglu]

Hopefully we'll be able to find out who learned their lesson from countless previous storms and who is just a whiny bitch who never prepares.

Bring it on

Just in time for someone to scoop up my generator in the for sale section..

CMP just finished butchering, er, trimming the trees where they might threaten the lines around my town. Generator got a solid 4 hour test run Sunday after a substation transformer failure so I know it's good. Did I mention our substation has a new transformer that is under a week old?

[kb1]

Saw is ready, and just need to hook up with ZXME to grab that generator, and i'll be ready to roll.

[nt650hawk]

Trailer moved from under the trees. No generator, but I like to camp so no worries. Just need to grab some gass. Sniff Sniff.... is that the smell of gas prices going up..... get it sooner that later.


Will All-Hallows'-Eve be cancled? Good Because I don't want to have to deal with the 2 people that show up every year.

[snwbrdr435]

Bring it I always need more work! Last years storm was awesome kept me busy until March, and I am still occasionally taking hangers down from that.

[catahoulabuldog]

I guess I better get the boat out this weekend!

[nt650hawk]

Is this the end of the world?

I need a job like yours Marco. Qualifications.... I love the smell of wood chips and 2 stroke.

How about heights?

[Chippertheripper]

Heights are cool. Where do I sign?

[maxim_X]

The only thing that could be better is some snow on top. Tear it down! <-(cynical lineman)

It's a good thing the power has been out a few times over the summer, so I know my generator still has good gas in it! Yep, learned my lesson from the last hurricane..I'm buying 2 cases of beer this time vs 1

[nhbubba]

Scheduled to fly out of Logan early Tuesday. Wonder if that will happen...

[mzdagrl]

My generator is saying that we won't have any significant storm. So far, it has been right.

[AVI8_636]

I'll be out working during this. Hope I won't be doing much flying. Coming into home base last week was a bitch; 40+mph winds, strong shears and heavy rain at night made for a miserable time. Hopefully no snow though! Last year we lost power for a few days here in NH, and my parents lost power for 9 days in Western Ma.

[zxme]

I think i need to pickup a cheap 18inch chainsaw, already had cut down 2 from the 08 storm

[Falko]

Filling the gas cans and running the generator and chainsaw this weekend. PRobably won't need either, but not taking the chance.

[csmutty]

Maybe I can make some money clearing neighbors yards. Bring it on!

[GingahNinjah]

i dont have a generator but i do have a cooler and will be picking up beer, ice and food that can be grilled

[nhbubba]

Exactly... it isn't even cold yet.

Fill up a couple old drywall compound buckets to use for flushing toilets.

[fineout]

great..im closing on my house the day its supposed to be making landfall up here..i dont want a tree falling on my new house
