rick or treat – October snow brings power outages
What the heck was that?!!? – an early white Halloween brings down power lines
By Roger BianchiniWarren County Report
(Writer’s note: this may seem like alietime ago but to me 4 to 8 incheso snow in October is still deserving o a hard copy news nod. A longer version o this story rst appeared on the WCR website on Oct. 30.)
Alright, I’ll admit it – someriends and mysel gathered at TeMelting Pot or pizza and Game 7o the World Series (what a story were those Cards and Game 6 inparticular) were making un o theweather station predicting rom 3-5 to 6-10 inches and then back to4-6 inches o snow or Saturday,Oct. 9th. Ater all, the low tem-perature orecast or the next day was somewhere between 35 and 38degrees; recent daily high tempera-tures have been rom 50 to 60, evenclipping 70 a time or two.No rozen ground; above reez-ing temperatures – no problem,right?WRONG.Tere it was sticking to car wind-shields and tree limbs around 6:30AM the next day … but nothing onthe streets – SEE, told you so!Rolled over and went back tosleep.Uh oh, when I nally rolled outo bed around 10:30 AM the streetswere covered, tree limbs were sag-ging and coming down under theweight o the heavy, wet snow ac-cumulating, not only on branches,but also leaves just beginning toreach their all color peak in town.Uhhh, maybe we should get tothe store – the cupboard lookspretty bare.Got to Martin’s beore noon –darn, looks a little dark in there.Power is out, running on genera-tors or emergency lights. Suddenly an announcement the store wouldno longer be selling perishables andrerigerated items as store person-nel began wrapping some displays, veggies, cheese, that kind o thingin plastic. Patrons were asked notto open rerigerator doors as storemanagement tried to preserve whatcooling was contained inside.We were headed to Food Lionwhen another customer said, no,the town’s other major grocery store had also closed up produceand perishable sections and nally the store itsel due to the poweroutage.
SVEC report
Got home shortly ater noonand ound a press release rom theShenandoah Valley Electric Coop-erative, now one o two primary northern valley regional powerproviders. Tey reported 59 cus-tomers in Warren without power.
REC report
On Sunday, Oct. 30, we receivedthis update rom RappahannockElectric Cooperative, which alongwith SVEC picked up the bulk o the northern valley’s ormer Al-legheny Power service contractslast year.“Rappahannock Electric Cooper-ative’s (REC) crews are continuingto make repairs on lines and equip-ment in Clarke, Warren, Rappah-annock and Frederick counties aswell as the own o Stevens City and Berryville. Currently we have,00 members without power.”Later some customers who hadtheir service restored awoke ues-day morning, Nov. 1 to nd it outagain. Shortly beore 10:41 AMan REC press release went out de-scribing the ailure o their Lindensubstation impacting as many as500 residents in the Blue Moun-tain, Apple Mountain and HighKnob subdivisions. At 4:01 PMREC released a statement statingthat power had been restored to allcustomers impacted by the Lindensubstation incident. REC spokes-person Ann Lewis said the compa-ny believes the outage on uesday morning was caused by an insu-lator ailing and the wire burnedthrough the pole causing the poleto break.
own
And the town Department o Energy Resources reported 869customers in eight locations with-out power at some point on Sat-urday. Tose outages ranged rom1.6 hours at the Sprint substationdue to REC power loss impacting704 customers to 9 hours at ScarletRoad Court impacting our cus-tomers. All incidents other thanthe Sprint substation were IDed asdue to downed tree limbs on lines.Other impacted town areas in-cluded Locust Dale, Westminstersubdivision, Cardinal Wind Road,Browntown Road, Blue Ridge Ave.,Front St. and Cherrydale Road.
