how you doing everybody well we've had
several days of storm and mostly rain
hail tornado within five miles of us
never had a tornado and I guess it was a
small one but it still touched down I
went from that we ended up with about an
inch a little more than an inch of hail
it was a real big hail but it was well
I'm up talk about a quarter inch in
diameter and then yesterday snowed
lightly all day on and off yesterday
last night it snowed a bunch as you can
see it's still snowing this is still
noon the next day and we're still having
light snow and we're supposed to even
get more well so so that looks pretty
good we have almost a foot but no open
areas it's probably about a foot around
but it is just beautiful out as you can
tell we love it here when it snows it's
it's gorgeous out yeah and the power's
out so we've been on the generator about
four hours now and just a little bit ago
I had to come out check because we
didn't hear the generator well the power
came back on and but then I was out here
the power went back out so there's a
over two thousand people I understand
out of power
probably more than that we talked to a
friend who works for PG&E and he says oh
it's more than that so there's quite a
few people out but just a little walk
around and you can see how nice it is it
just is just beautiful out very quiet
you can barely hear the generator back
there running
yeah
a little green light on it Lincoln when
it's running the green lights on all the
time when it's in standby mode but a
tape yeah you've never lived in
mountains and the snow where it snows
it's a really quiet it's very peaceful
it's a little birds get down in the
bottom of the trees flying around and
that's it's a awful pretty out we shoot
out you going skiing or something oh
there's the house getting ready to slide
some more we had to but snow slide off
the roof last night comes thundering on
down hey write this I give you a little
bit of an update today and there's
there's a shop up there see anyway I
hope I know back on the east coast
getting a lot of bad weather we're kind
of used to the bad weather thing here it
doesn't really fazes a lot I don't know
what their problem is back east but
seems to faze them a lot I know I have a
lot of viewers back east but you know
guys suck it up like said we're out
without power and you know this happens
a lot to us so finally have an automatic
generator where I just have to pull the
welder out before but anyway thanks a
lot
we'll catch you guys later
well this is Sunday the 10th 10th 11th
something like that if you see it stones
still forget about foot last night but
you added to the 10 to 12 inches we had
already so in the open areas it's easy
to feet deep and as you can see behind
me mixed to the truck this whole area
here in front of the shop I had all this
plowed yesterday and it's all filled
back in one of my friends down the
street had a big cedar tree fall on his
garage and shop not good big tree
there's a lot of damage there
we have no trees down but there are
branches that have broken off of course
you can see how the trees are heavily
loaded cedar trees when when they're in
the thick of things they're pretty safe
but when you've lost a lot of trees and
you have a cedar tree it's I've been
unprotected
on like one side that where the branches
have grown heavy on one side and say and
that would not too much on the other
because the forest was thick well they'd
load up a real heavy on that one side
and down that tree comes I've had a
couple do that the ones that are on the
fringes of things and this is what
happened about my friends he lost a lot
of trees during the bug kill and so now
the trees are exposed and lopsided and
down it came I've got the tractor
warming up and I need to get this plowed
and when it gets over a foot deep boy
it's it takes me a while to plow you can
see on the house here how thick it is on
the roof there on this end it so that's
almost two feet there at the end
upper roof has been shedding snow
already so that's a good thing it's the
house is very very strong it I never
ever worried about the roof on the house
never ever
and the
shop has over a foot foot and a half
roughly that's a comp on there and it
won't slide up and it's only for 12
picks the barn shedded it's roughly the
other day it was all cleaned off pretty
much and this the barn is a steep pitch
roof at 6:12 and they won't ever have a
problem it's a pretty strong I built
that's pretty strong no that's it so up
here so we're on the generator power
went out again this morning everybody up
in this area here is out of power it's
about 168 customers right now out of
power up here yeah and its most it's the
snow is supposed to stop here around
noon I think though it's it's only
running 30 degrees it's pretty warm as
this snow is really heavy the last
during the week with all the other snow
we got was it was really cold of course
really cold for us is in the teens and
it was picking lows were at 19 and the
highs were in the low 30s that's too
high twenties really about 28 29 so the
snow is nice and dry and light but now
the snow got heavy especially last night
there
a lot of it so yeah be a lot of a lot of
houses damage for buildings damaged from
this kind of snow so thank you and well
I could do have some other stuff to show
you so we'll uh we'll get on with that
Thanks
the sun's coming out a guy that plowed
and all the way out to the road which is
a ways I should walk up there and show
you that but we got all plowed and the
sun's out coming out so I think I think
it's gonna stop
and they're saying Wednesday more or
more rain maybe forget rain that's all
most of this will go away which is be
okay but we got it all plowed and we can
get in and out now we're getting a
beautiful alpenglow this evening about
5:30 Suns going down and it would just
get a little orange er as the Sun gets
lower but it's just gorgeous out this is
a view of our property
