I think it would have been high speed/low altitude if intentional. I was reading about the wind forces coming down from the rotor/blades/whatever the official name was. It made logical sense that it was likely not intentional. I'm sure our AF guys could better explain it and get the right part names. Lol

Article says they have a generator at the distribution location, but they can't recharge the batteries once they give them to people back up in isolated locations with no power and no generators
also (at least in my experience) those batteries don't charge or recharge fast so I wouldn't be running my portable generator enoughto recharge it

Lots of the damage is just getting cut into paths to restore power and open roads. No real cleanup is happening in these harder hit areas. So a battery powered saw to the areas with power would be a huge help. I happened to snap a pic today of an area "cleaned up" to share with my kids.

The damage from this storm will be visually seen for years. The remote people aren't the only ones in need of saws.
