Ms lost power

[Fade]

I just went up to MS and it looks like they are going to have massive losses. We need to remember to help when all the lfs get back to speed. I also heard that belts had some losses also.

bummer I think it's pretty safe to say that the majority of LFS around the STL area have lost power...hopefully generators are on hand for most.

Fade- Are they back up now? I was just on my way out there this afternoon.

 

[akrimmel]

will they donate the brownouts

 

[akrimmel]

i already know that answer

 

[Chelsey]

Unfortunately I don't think they'll be brownouts, I think they'll be whiteouts

 

[akrimmel]

yep, is GWA without power?

 

[Chelsey]

they've got a generator I believe.

This is a bad deal ! I have no power at the store or house,but do have generators running. I just paid a small fortune to rent a generator to run the store and it is helping,but still freekin hot !
I suspect things at my house are a goner as its so hot outside. I think this is going to put a major hurtin on the saltwater market.
I was told 2-3 business days to regain power ? Hope they are wrong ! Thanks to everyone that has called,emailed or stopped by. As John would say all we can do is pray to the power gods !

 

[akrimmel]

what do you need chad?

 

[Dert42]

for the love of coral man, unload to supporters with power who will hold if for you!

 

[akrimmel]

agreed but not to be greedy as well.

 

[chadscamaro]

All I need is cooler weather ! So far tanks are ok,but I really need to keep the tank temps down . Last night they got up to 95.4. , 30 bags of ice and 2 hours later they were at 89.
Im just bummed out that the tanks at home are probably done for !

 

[Amy83820]

Chad- do you have a generator running at your house too or just the store?

 

[akrimmel]

understadable of your possible losses is there any way to claim this on insurance for business losses?????????

 

[Dert42]

i'm sure he's covered in some way.

i think tommarow is supposed to be considereably cooler. but thats very relative as the high will be around 87 instead of 101...

 

[akrimmel]

will help regardless.

 

[trottman]

i dont think i ever moved ice faster than i did last night!

hope everything makes it for everybody. i only lost power for 40 minutes.. so i have a tank that is unstressed and cool if anyone needs help.

 

[akrimmel]

yeah i need that galaxy frag trottman!

 

[rams]

man that sucks! Maybe we can organize some group orders thru these shops. Worst time of the year in Saint Louis to own a LFS.
