We had a bad storm the other day - winds were a steady 50 mph+ for a couple of hours. With that, we had a lot of uprooted trees and downed powerlines in the area.
One of Jason's co-workers (and friend) was working on a power line. He tested the line twice, and it had no power feeds. He started working on it, and it had an arc flash. Apparently there was another power source backfeeding off of it.
He was transferred to Georgia to a burn center, and he has burns from his head to his hands. I'm not sure how bad they are, but from what the other guys at Jason's work said, he's lucky to be alive.
I'm sure his family would appreciate any good thoughts and prayers for a good recovery that can be spared.
how awful ... healing energy heading their way![]()

Healing thoughts to him - we have alot of power outages around where I live, and I always worry about the guys who come in from everywhere to help get the power back on - alot of people use generators and don't know how to do it properly to avoid the very problem you just described.
Sending good thoughts & prayers for him & his family.
Prayers for him and his family!
You got it, Gail. That's so scary.
