Just bought a Generac after losing power for 6 days after Hurricane Beryl. I live in Houston and it was MISERABLE. Hot and humid. I had a portable generator but with a bad back and shoulders, I had to call my kids to come and start it for me when I had to turn it off to put gas into it. I couldn’t get it started. I’m set for the next one (or an ice storm. There was one back in 2021 that had power outages across the city for days.)
I live in Houston. MANY years ago, we had a nasty snow/ice storm blow through. I was on my way to work, very slowly. The guy on the radio was originally from Buffalo NY. He said, “The best driving tip I can give you is to stay away from any car with a bumper sticker that says Native Houstonian.” I kid you not, there was a car in front of me with that sticker, and as soon as I heard that statement on the radio, the car started sliding. I ended up calling in.
I feel the allergies!
