@mrddmia@RepThomasMassie Have you apologized to your bathroom ceiling for not painting it with a twelve gauge?
Keep defending the pedophile elite, you bastard.
We're coming for the likes of you.
@thegreatcatsbi@NashSevereWx Be advised though that salt won't do much for more than a glaze of ice, or 3-4" of snow, without damaging the concrete. Mechanically remove what you can first.
These guys are the best - and they're VOLUNTEERING. The reason they're the best is that they strive for accuracy and you can. not. predict. winter. storm. impacts. days. in. advance.
Let me clear the air on something that has come up more than once in the past hour. It has been suggested by some that we're stringing you along on lack of forecast details and/or clearly concerned about ad revenue/clicks on the website. To have to address this implies a clear misunderstanding of how this organization works, and maybe you'r new here. Welcome! Never once in my 11 years have I or anyone else at NSW left out details to string you along. Ever. And we never will. We will tell you what we know and what we don't, full stop. Secondly, we are 100% supported by donations, using two methods Patreon and Paypal. The website costs us money every single month and has never generated a penny. Now that that's behind us, back to regularly scheduled programming. And, thanks for being here. Really.
@NashSevereWx Indeed. If y'all have ever welded, you know a welding arc runs around 250 amps max, at a few dozen volts. This was a bit over 9,600 amps at 14,400 V. Rather toasty. And yet, still a tenth of a lightning strike.
@NashSevereWx@WKRN stated the electrical substation was on fire; neighbor took this photo. About a hundred yards away from the substation a large tree limb was thrown into the line and caught fire. Credit to Frank Walker for the photo of flames ๐ฅ.
