As everyone tries to survive the current storm conditions up here in Maine, and throughout the Northeast, I thought you would like to know how the Skystream3.7 has been dealing with the winds. Sunday night, after 8" of snow had already accumulated, the snow turned to freezing rain, and my nightmares of the "Ice Storm of 98" began to come back again. The snow and ice conditions had trees falling even before the winds picked up. My Oregon Scientific weather station keeps a record windspeed of 63.5 MPH from Jan 2002, and I believe that record was broken early Monday morning, but because of the ice, the weather station stopped recording the windspeeds. The Skystream3.7 spun flawlessly thru all the winds and gusts, producing 45 KWH's of power in the past 36 hours. Please feel free to email me with any questions, and I will let you know the final KWH count of this lingering Nor'easter once it goes away and we can get back to a normal Spring.
