Default storm

Hello, Still here, got power back yesterday about noon. Almost lost my meter pole, 3 truck loads of brush cut from the tree top wedged against it. Tricky getting that top cut and slid out. Old rusty 3/8 guy wire shreaded in half but held. Neighor 1/2 mile away lost his meter pole, thats where trees started jerking on the lines. We have 3 hot lines on a set of poles, pulled one off of three poles between him and me, flying loose in the woods, and others hanging low, cracked the cross tie on both ends. Cambridge thinks they had a twister, one big church collasped, roofs off NAPA and tire store, windows and walls blown out of buildings. Never seen so many trees down before. Happy to have power back and cool off, another week of cutting and cleaning up. Mike
