What's more current than the weather?

The new generator was installed a few weeks ago and a remote controller was installed last week. I had to run out last night for two bags of sand because I found out that the air intake does not handle snow well and wanted to prop sometimes against the enclosure to keep off any drifts. The air intake faces east and the winds will be coming from N and NE. Fortunately, our row of houses is 5 feet North of the generator and will provide a windbreak. When it gets light I will go out and clear off the snow.

We have not experienced a power failure yet but with gusts up to 50mph, it's a real possibility.
