***TROPICAL ALERT*** TROPICAL STORM ETA (Late season tropical outlook discussion)

Everytime my family/friends come over from Sweden, they mention how our power lines look like a movie scene from the 50s. I love living here, but it’s definitely not due to our “amazing” infrastructure. Slightly off topic, but I moved to the States in the late 90s and I didn’t know anything about writing checks. They don’t exist in the rest of the Western world!

At least we party much better than them!
Thank you! I knew I wasn’t crazy to think it’s not right to accept multi-day power outages after every named storm as something that can’t be overcome.
