Heroes that are about to make BANK.

But that isn't 40k.

CenterPoint sent about 450 for reference.

These guys show up all over the place to help after major disasters. Every year they seem to be heading somewhere on the gulf coast and they go in and get things done quickly.

Mutual assistance agreements between utilities are a great example of efficiency in private industry.

Also linemen and utility workers are the least recognized "emergency responders" but work their asses off away from their families for weeks at a time to restore essential services.
I do agree that many forget that most people overlook utility workers, taking for granted they do, how much we all rely on power to be there when we flip the switch.

But, it is very hard to say they aren't recognized. Many lineman can buy a new vehicle cash after coming home from a mutual assistance duty.

Monday morning QB i know, but if you stay on a barrier island where the only bridge will 100% wash out leaving you to be rescued by USCG, then you are a moron and should be sent a bill for services afterwards.

They should at least own a boat or SeaDoo.

Personally, I think people who live on barrier islands in hurricane/typhoon territory are insane, especially on the seaward sides of the islands.

I mean, they're called 'barrier' islands for a reason.

Models so far keeping it south. High pressure ridge building in pushing it towards central America not allowing a curve north. See if that forecast holds.

Im no meteorologist, but I've read that the first cold front that comes through to Houston usually means that hurricane season is over for us.

November 30 ends the season

Remember, not too many years back there were storms well into December. They didn't come to Texas, but the Earth is full of surprises some years.

I spelled a finance term incorrectly last week and some loser grammar-bullied me. Rightfully so, b/c of my mishap the markets have tanked since.
