Bill, Jay,  Group,

Jay,

>Big ice here. Trees snapping all night and still continuing.

Sorry to see you got hit so hard by the ice. I noticed the
rain/snow/freezing rain line on the weather news last night was at an angle
to us. Probably the lower middle of NH got the same.

>VD towers are still standing but TX loop down,

What's the damage like?

>I suspect Paul C. has similar problems. He's three miles away and just
about at the same elevation.

Does Paul also have a generator?

Has anyone heard from John A. today?? He was in that freezing rain/ice path
much more than I. Most of the 'city folk' like John and I do not have a
generators.

Good luck on the repairs. Looks like you have some work cut out for you! I
were closer, I'd be over (well, if that were true, I'd have been hit hard
too!)
