Norway – Christmas Hurricane Dagmar causes Millions in damage, leaves 100 000 without power in freez - Polidicks

[QUOTE=LarparNar;33905936]There's another one coming tonight. As a viking you should go outside almost naked, face the wind, and slashing around with a battleaxe while screaming obscenities. That's my plan anyways.[/QUOTE] But I want to play games :(

It's not THAT serious. In fact, we've almost got 10 degrees outside. Snow is gone, but it's far from cold.

Yay. Just got some electricity to my house. First time I've spent 20 hours without it, it's horrible.

[QUOTE=CcAeroN;33906769]Yay. Just got some electricity to my house. First time I've spent 20 hours without it, it's horrible.[/QUOTE] I've had to do that periodically. The power lines around my house are spliced all over the place, so we get outages from time to time. The longest one was around 26 hours.

We had some monster winds here last month in Southern California and lost power for two days. It sucked because the temperatures were in the low 60s and with no way to turn up the heat it was frickin' cold! So I feel your pain Norway.

There were winds up to 35 m/s here in Finland. The wind tore a roof off a building a km away from my home.

Where's the snow? It would only suck more to have snow, but it's just due to the northern geography, I would expect snow to be mixed in with these pictures.

You people shouldn't laugh, look at the hellish conditions we had to live under with no power. [IMG]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y170/cecilb6/windstrom2011.jpg[/IMG]

[QUOTE=NO ONE;33910974]Where's the snow? It would only suck more to have snow, but it's just do to the northern geography, I would expect snow to be mixed in with these pictures.[/QUOTE] Storm brings rain, heat and wind. Snow does not like rain, heat and wind.
