Power Outage

fatlazyless · 11-30-2014, 08:25 AM

Meredith Neck Rd, on the flat stretch close to the Camp Monotomy swampy-deer habitat area, now has a tree arch; a tree large enough that got all bent over the road weighed down by the icy snow at the start of the storm and it makes a tunnel, tree arch over the road big enough to drive a big town Kenworth snowplow underneath it.

I know that the State of NH owns this road, for some unknown reason, while the Town of Meredith does the snow removal, but do not know if it is the NH-DOT or the Town who has responcibility for removing this storm created large tree arch that's bent across and over the road.

It makes for a very scenic photograph so hopefully this new tree tunnel will be just left in place ..... like wow ..... just looky at that .... !

Any overhead door should almost be almost neutral balanced and require very little effort to open manually. If it isnt then the springs should be checked/adjusted so excessive strain is not put on the motor/drive.

Thanks to NHEC, Pine Island power was restored this morning!

One item that helps is for island folks to walk along the power line trail to see what damage has occured (if they can). This helps NHEC understand what kinds of crews/materials are needed for restoration. For PI it was a nice walk in the woods Sunday morning, and found one tree across the lines, but no broken wires or downed poles. I then called in and gave them that update.

Obviously stay safe and stay clear of any wires!

Nice that even during a power outage we still have Verizon 4g and UPS to the webcams and house systems so we can monitor security, temperature, power, etc remotely.

When is ice in?!?! -PIG
