None taken. It ain’t the guys who are busting their asses trying to fix it, it’s the geniuses who planned the damn thing in the first place in my opinion. Engineers have to plan for this shit but apparently they did not.

It's a transmission line. I'm gonna break this down because I don't think you understand. A transmission line is those big lines you see running for miles and miles. Through the fields, woods, hills and even mountains. They run power from sub station to sub station and across thousands of property owners land. Sometimes nature fights back and it wins. Look at Montana right now. You can't plan for nature all the time. And if you could, would you want that added cost of your monthly bill? I sure wouldn't. I'd be alright purchasing some ice and coolers.

I’m not going to pretend to know how it works, but I can tell you that if after this is over, I’m certain all the engineers aren’t high fiving each other saying it went down exactly as they planned. Whatever took place knocked 116000 homes out of power for 2-3 days during the hottest possible time. Instead, I’d bet money they’re scrambling to figure out how the fuck can we fix things to make sure this never happens again.

How it feels to drive a tractor with a cab without A/C

 

[hickslawns]

Even with an open cab it's been a hit one today.

We’ve got some fowl weather moving through down here, went from 95 too 74 and it’s a comfortable 74. I’ll take it! @Clay Showalter you seeing the same? Was heading your direction.

East Guernsey is getting pounded right now. 72 degrees, humid and coming down in buckets for the passes hour straight, at least.

 

[bowhunter1023]

We're gonna drop 20 degrees by Saturday with no rain. Very strange. Then by Tuesday, it's 10+ days of 90+ degree days.

 

[JARHEAD]

Saturday is a high of 72 and a low of 47 at night. 95 on Wednesday! This is some Bullshit!!

Can't change the weather. Not buying an enclosed cab tractor with AC. I will suck it up. I wasn't complaining. Just saying it was hot in open cab tractors today. Lol
