NHEC Power outage?

Hillcountry · 05-05-2018, 08:11 AM

Lost power around 10pm last night 15 miles West of the lake and still out for many. Anyone else closer to the lake lose power?
Thank heavens for my Generac!

Here on Long Island it went out for a while. I heard the standby humming toward daybreak, but it was off when I got up. News at 11pm did say there were a good number without power. There were some strong winds in places when the front passed. As of 11am, the NHEC outage map shows numerous remaining outages across the state. Moultonborough has 20 still out. Statewide it's 2898.

On Whortleberry Island our power went out about 2 AM, back on by 6:30 AM. That was some wind!

It was a wild night, Friday night, in behind Meredith center on Lake Waukewan. We had a micro burst come through that ripped some trees right out of the ground. A tree came down across Bonney Shores Rd and a couple BIG trees came down in my neighbors yards on Sawmill Shores Rd. One just missing a house and the other just missing a boat on a trailer. I never experienced anything like that. It was a scary 10 minutes! My wife and I had to move away from the windows because we thought they were going to break with all the stuff flying around.

I was camping at NHMS and had my tent and screen house destroyed, and I was in it at the time. Hit too hard and too fast to be scared. Top of MT Washington recorded 108mph as it passed them.
