LFairbanks Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Landed in Hawaii. Just got to the hotel. First time here. Now you're not going to want to go back home to the snow and cold. My fascination when I was there, was Pearl Harbor and the Volcano. Enjoy your time there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenWS6 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Haha. I'm not use to this crazy high humidity. I can go back to the snow with no problem. I've been there my whole life and it's what I know. Lol We are going to see if we get a chance to hike Dimond head, and possibly Pearl Harbor. Other then that it'll be relaxing.

stripesace Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I've never considered Hawaii to have crazy high humidity. The breeze usually made up for it. Then again I've spent my entire life south of I-10 or just 20 some odd miles to the north of it, save for the 2 years I spent in Birmingham, Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already knew that you were crazy....You just confirmed it even more. Hey guys maybe we should also grade the yard how well someone can mow with a headlamp after 7 in the evenings. I have done that in the summer months if I am about to finish the lawn work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are usually around 20% maybe up to 40%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah....that isnt that bad, its when you strap a large battery to power a work light attached to the mower.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrozenWS6 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Landed back home at 4:30 this morning. Left the 86 degrees of Hawaii and back into the -11 below of Alaska. Major temperature shock. Lol mc2hill and Captain Slow 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFairbanks Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) Spent the day with my wife in the National Park. She even enjoyed it, even though that sort of stuff isn't her thing.

TheWolf Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Replaced shingles on the roof and cleaned up the yard from a big windstorm last night. 40-50 MPH winds with gusts recorded at 70 MPH. Two people killed by falling trees. About 380,000 customers lost power, some may be out for 3-5 days. Power was out at my house for 24 hours. Schools and Universities all closed. My parents live nearby, and have a whole-house generator, so of course their utility power was out for a total of ten minutes.

I saw some coverage last night on the Spokane news just as the same storm was getting to us. We didn't get it nearly as bad as you though. All the best to you and your community.

The power to my neighborhood comes in via overhead lines, so a bad windy day can take our power down every so often. We lived here for 4 months and had 4 power outages lasting 2 hours or more. So I installed an automatic whole home generator. In the last year and 3 months, the longest power outage we've had is 37 minutes. It's run more on its weekly run test than it has carrying the load of the house...... TheWolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunate that two people lost their lives because of the storm. TheWolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
