I filled a bunch buckets with tapwater thinking that we would get a monsoon-style rainstorm and the water supply reservoirs would get a bunch of sediment. (I use tapwater!). But there was no rain; just wind. Let's hope it stays that way....

This is yet another reason to spring for a RODI unit....

Was up at the top of Whistler today, and it was windy alright. They had to close down the Peak2Peak gondola. But not as bad as I was expecting. Had another great deep powder day, so can't complain about that.

In Langley, I live in one of the worst places for power outages, yet it was not bad at all last night. Don't think it will be too bad tonight either. But am home now, so all ready with my back up battery packs if it does happen.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

Yup, went out in my area of Surrey between 645pm-11pm ish. Good thing we have a generator that I bought in a panic after the last 4 hr outage back in Nov. I just had to scramble to slightly assemble it & get some gas. I would have been pi***d if it didn't work, lol. Was more than enough to run 2 return pumps, 2 heaters & the TV

Our power went out about 3am but it was back on in about half an hour. Nothing in the tanks any way so no big deal.

Wretch, you must live in my neighborhood of Surrey - my power went out at 2:30am as well, and came on in about 15 minutes.
