Wow! Those were some high winds .
Did your solar panels hold up okay?

The saddest, excepted victims, is the destroyed forest. While the 1999 tempest destroyed 100,000 ha, the 2009 tempest destroyed 300,000 ha. The wood lost 85% of its value, which was always under its pre-1999 value, and can only be used for paper and heat.
The forest loss is tragic . Are those figures in hectares?

think about plugging the freezer and the refrigerator at the beginning of the black out or at least sooner : the freezer kept correctly the cold (no sticker changed its color) but not the refrigerator...
What stickers are you talking about? Some kind of thaw indicator?
