Central Va starts to get the feeling

#1 Postby jbj5d » Thu Sep 18, 2003 4:15 pm

Here in charlottesville, we are starting to get some good feelings from Izzy.

Power is out in over half the city, trees are breaking (behind my house, one fell on a car and across the road), and we are now a big red dot on the domonion power outage map. And it is only 5 o clock. Winds have picked up alot over the past 2 hours, tonight will be interesting.

And now, in case you didn't know, http://www.dom.com gives you the domonion power outage map, and here is a picture of the damage behind my house.

jbj5d I am with you in Fredericksburg. Winds around 48 in gusts radar shows heavy stuff now moving in. We still have power although it is flickering. Stay safe and keep typing as long as you can.

Look at my home town Richmond Va.. I hope my parents are ok. I'm up at State College Pa for College. Man most likely I would not have power in Richmond right now.
