We had the Derecho here in WV last June. Power was out for a week. I hope it goes elsewhere this year.
That was a mess. We were one of the lucky few. Our electric was only out for a few hours and we were not home during that time. We rode out that storm on a friend's farm. They were having their annual 4th of July party. About 30 or 40 of us were tent camping around their cabin. We were right out in the middle of that storm trying to save everyone's tents, awnings, etc... We didn't have any warning that the storm would be that severe. We came home the next morning and it was crazy. Power was out everywhere, tree limbs were down, homes were torn up. Any gas station that had power had long lines at their gas pumps and you couldn't find a bag of ice anywhere.
