Good morning.
Snowmaggedon didn't happen here but it is even worse as all the snow was rain and some of it froze. My driveway is a mess and will be until mother nature chooses to melt it off. Nothing but ice. I can get in and out if need be but for now we are content to hunker down at home.
I had a good doctor check up yesterday so no changes in medication.
I read that Germany had the same problem with the turbines, and the solar panels too are covered with snow and not producing.
I worked 12 years in a hydroelectric plant and I can tell you, it is green but it is not dependable. You are at the mercy of the weather. It sounds like it is the same with wind and solar. Sadly, they are failing when they are needed the most. I checked my back up generator and I am ready, But hope I don't need it.
Hoping to work on trains this afternoon...we shallsee.
