A FEW WEEKS AGO I MESSAGED YOU ON FB AS "NORM LOR" AND GAVE THE IDEA TO USE A DIESEL ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE (AS ONE MAYOR DID HERE IN QUEBEC DURING OUR ICE STORM) SHE LITERALLY HAD POWER FROM THIS ENGINE DRIVEN RIGHT OFF ITS TRACKS AND HAD HER TOWN HALL POWERED UP TO HAVE URGENT COMMUNICATION. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE HAD SOMEONE IN THIS CITY BEEN TOLD OF THIS IDEA.
I say in a loud texting GOD BLESS THE ONES IN THE PATH OF THE STORM,,,,,, AMEN
Prayers for the power company people in Louisiana and bless all the other states that sent their people to help!

SCREW THOSE ROOF TRUSSES AND EVERYTHING ELSE DOWN
Aloha very professional outfit plus you are a great reporter0
Why are we still stringing wire on wooden poles like India? Run it underground.
I'm so glad that people were warned of this disaster. So very sad for those who choose or are unable to evacuate in this disaster.
any trump maga signs in front yards appeared to weather storm. 💪💪
dumbasses wont leave they get what they deserve.
I wonder if Isis has plans to attack the US on the anniversary of 9/11? I wouldn't put it past them.
In addition to all the other horror, the heat will kill many. Lucky people might have generators to keep AC running.
Support Legislation in the United States to BAN COURT ORDERED RAPE
fact check: Louis Armstrong did not play clarinet. Clarinet is a reed instrument. Louis played brass. Trumpet or cornet is a brass instrument.
ABC(D) news has zero credibility!
I don't want to hear about covid. Stick to the storm. Dam you guys suck
For some reason those touchless car wash and air signs were still standing…..
CAPITALISM = ILLUMINATI https://youtu.be/TIfP6MLaOb4
Why did you say "customers" instead of residents? You brought up property damage before the loss of a life, tacky
CAPITALISM = ILLUMINATI https://youtu.be/TIfP6MLaOb4
It doesn't make sense in Florida they cut everyone's power off so we don't blow our transformers before it hits
You forgot to blame it all on Trump, I'm sure someone saw his nose in the clouds.
Why didn’t they evacuate after Katrina? Dumbest thing I ever heard.
Those at home with older people should have left like they where told to do. Just like Covid it’s not going to happen to me.
VERSE OF THE DAY
August 30
Job 38:4-7
4 “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand. 5 Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? 6 On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone 7 while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy?
No it should Not
Everyone loves Matt
If success is cheap, everyone would have been successful, if the road to success was straight many would have been enjoying success long ago. But am sorry, its not! If you are expecting your dreams to come through cheaply, then you need a change of mind. Success is not for people who give up easily, its not for lazy people, its not for people who give excuses. Success comes to people who are dedicated, committed and ready to give their dreams all it takes to be fulfilled. So I ask again, what manner of person are you? Someone who gives up easily? Or someone ready to fight through the bad day to earn the days? Think about it!,
So when Our troops move ou
t..Isis will probably move in..to fight the Taliban they both believe the same thing about Martyrs for their cause..

You can hire Cobra Energy, and push out all other competition like you did with WhiteFish when you blamed Trump, they have worked a lot with FEMA and military contractors in Afghanistan and then took months to restore power here.
When are we going to get smart enough to put power lines under ground?

Afghanistan is a great example of how helping someone out can quickly become entitlement. We gave them decades of help, trillions to help build their country, and that's just us. They ran at the sight of the Taliban and didn't even fight for themselves. We owe you nothing. You are not entitled to what our own are entitled to. Take care of our own before taking care of others. Afghans are not abandoned by the U.S. but by their own government.
FEMA: I’m from the federal government and I’m here to help you.
YEY WEATHER WARFARE! Thanks HAARP! WHAT A CLEVER WAY TO LAUNDER MONEY!$$! JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT THE SWAMP WAS OUT OF IDEAS, BAM! THEY DO IT AGAIN. WELL PLAYED…WELL PLAYED. BRAIN FART ALERT! So…if the swamp has to do all this in order to make money and keep their strongholds…to date mind you….that must mean they LOST CINTROL and are DESPERATE..
Using the word "catastrophic" for running over a 4" object in your car is a bit mellow dramatic don't you think?
WHEN??? The decision to begin burying neighborhood lines is part of a hardening plan to strengthen infrastructure to better withstand hurricane-force winds. Underground power lines have been shown to perform about 50% better in day-to-day operations and 80% better during a major storm.
Probably waitin on AAA To change his tire 😅
everyone should invest into solar generator cause gas runs out and no power to pump gas stations if they survive… Sun will replenish these solar generators!
REST IN PEACE ARE OUR NATIONAL TROOPS HERO WE DID IT.AND THANK U FOR THE AMERICAN SERVANT IF OUR NATION
