A Little Weather Means Nothing In Florida

We just had a pretty severe thunderstorm with possibly a few tornadoes associated with it. My neighbors and I all lost power but we have a whole house generator and my 2nd nearest neighbor has 8 poultry houses and you have to have major generators to keep those birds alive if the power goes out. In these newest poultry houses, 30 minutes without power could mean 20,000 to 50,000 dead chickens, each house. He's half a mile away and I can usually hear his generators kick on. After about 30 seconds they level out and adjust to the load and I can't hear them anymore. 

I didn't get a screenshot when this was over me and it's mellowed out a lot at this point.
