Over 10,000 residents in Vic still without power after severe thunderstorms

More than 10,000 residents in Victoria are still without power this morning after severe thunderstorms lashed large parts of central and western Victoria.
More wild weather is expected for metropolitan Melbourne and the Gippsland region today, bringing the potential for flash flooding, damaging winds and hail.
Melbourne Airport is warning travellers to check with their airlines for potential delays.
Melbourne residents are urged to drive carefully this morning due to thick fog in some suburbs.
The storm drenched regional centres such as Ballarat, Stawell, Ararat, and Hamilton.

    I have been without power for a week and am likely to be without for at least two months. But I have solar panels and a battery. I have wired to the EPS socket so life is continuing with only small interruptions. I cannot use the wired in air conditioner or stovetop. But I can use a two burner induction stovetop and a smaller air conditioner. Gas? No. Mains electricity? NO. But we CAN function.

    Have ya heard about the hale damaged solar farm. [The 5.2 megawatt solar farm in Scottsbluff, Nebraska was turned into rubble from a high-speed hailstorm. So, power generated from politically incorrect fossil fuels will need to fill in the gap. The solar farm lasted only 4 years instead of its advertised life expectancy of 25 years.] and this is a Google returning this top reply LOL.

    I live on acreage way out of town, and when a storm hits the power is often out for a day or so. By design I have a gas stove (back-up bottles of gas too), plus a generator to see me over until the power is restored. To be clear, our property operates with the use of petrol, diesel, gas and water is stored in tanks, so normally we're okay. All electric? No thanks!! And an EV? Yeah right!!!

    BOM has erased the record heat of Australia’s past, using the excuse that the thermometers weren’t ''shaded properly'' - but that claim isn’t supported by the historical record. Some of the highest country readings are given below. It will be seen that the North-western district had the worst of if-Mildura, 123deg.; Swan Hill, 118deg.; Donald, 117deg.; Beulah, 116deg.; Pyramid Hill and Hopetoun, 115deg.; and Charlton, 114deg (F) “Mildura, 123 deg., on January 5, 1906,” is now the highest shade reading that an official Victorian ther-mometer has ever registered. Previously the record was “Mildura 121½ deg., on January 30, 1904.” The record of 123 deg., at Mildura was notified to the Observatory; “The Argus” correspondent notified 122½ deg. Officers at the Observatory rely on the records reported to them. The thermometers are supplied from the Observatory, and are reliable instruments, and the screens and other devices by means of which the “shade” is produced are the same as those in use at the Observatory itself.”

    There Is No Climate Emergency, Say 500 Experts in Letter to the United NationsClimate policy relies on inadequate models.CO2 is not a pollutant. It is a plant food that is essential to all life on Earth. Photosynthesis is a blessing. More CO2 is beneficial for nature, greening the Earth: additional CO2 in the air has promoted growth in global plant biomass. It is also good for agriculture, increasing the yields of crops worldwide.For example, in 2012 a group of more than 125 scientists sent an open letter to the United Nations warning that scientific evidence refuted UN Secretary-General’s Ban Ki-Moon repeated assertions on weather and climate. Those warnings of climate hysteria unsupported by the scientific evidence were ignored in 2012, just like the letter from the 500 prominent scientists and professionals will be ignored in 2019. In other words, it’s “deja vu all over again.”Global warming has not increased natural disasters.
