[CALV-AUXCOMM] Anyone Lose Antennas During the Storm?

[James Tetlow]

Momentary power loss, many times, lost count. Lots of small branches, no damage here. Only had to set clock on microwave. After 3pm plenty of wind, but no more power flickers. 

Did see a picture from a friend that works for Verizon about three to four poles came down on Mt Harmony Road (on to road) no cars involved. Road closed until the poles were replaced! Don't know how they did that in such wind. Went by there this morning all work complete and new poles installed. Amazing!

No traffic on repeater at all yesterday! Did hear some packet traffic!

Did not see much damage in North County this morning, a few trees that had been cut up to clear way. No major, noticeable house damage was seen....by me. 

Wind was pretty intense, but we were lucky, consistent one direction flow North - North West average 12-14 mph, gusts to 41 from my observations. Highest gust recorded at house was 47 mph. 

No microburst or cross wind flow.

Did County activate?
