I probably freak people out when I post pictures like the one above, but a picture is worth.. well you know. Actually it has calmed down considerably in the last few hours so I'll be able to take the dogs to shore for a long walk soon... but not too soon, it still picks up from time to time. They are crashed out for the time being and hardly suffering. The wind turbine has been the star of the storm, producing enough energy to run computer, lights, refrigeration, music, tv, movies, without the need for engine charging. It would produce more amperage overall but it turns itself off at about 35 mph winds to avoid self destructing.
