Maybe I can make one or 2 post till the battery in the broadband card goes dead. Icestorm overnight,trees down all over and power has been out since 2am. Entergy just texted---estimated time for restoration-5pm March 5 tomorrow. Gen is ready for a few lights and the freezer/refrigerator, but it won't run the well. Oh well--got coffee off the campstove and soup warming up. Later--I got to check how many trees down on the fences. All I've heard is trees and limbs falling in the national forest since I got up at daylight. Looks like wewere just in the right place to get this--rain, then ice pellets, then the rain started freezing on everything including the powerlines. Should get up to 37 sometime today and start raining in earnest.
I hate trees, I hate their guts and feathers.
On the map above, I'm in the Isom, just above and to the right of the IAH designation. (Bush Airport)
