Coronavirus, is that still a thing?

It has completely disappeared here over the past 1.5 weeks...
Really? 

Maybe I should pack up and move to Austin...

Not sure I'd make that choice.  Turns out when people are freezing to death in their own homes because the state deliberately cut off their power, priorities tend to change...

I'm not sure whether we'll see a huge drop in COVID cases/hospitalizations because nobody has been able to go anywhere for a week and a half, or we'll see an increase because many families that weren't previously intermingling, had no choice but to cohabitate for the past week.

I've hosted 3 extra families at my house now, over the past week+.  I'm not particularly worried though, they were families we've already been intermingling with quite regularly over the past 9 months. I guess they could be considered our "pod" though we certainly haven't ever formalized it that way.

I'm doing a whole-house generator, but for different reasons.

Is that a whole-house genset, lh320?  

I've been considering doing something to patch in my portable 3500W genny that I use for the RV, and set it up to plug into the main circuit board at my house.  Really just looking to charge two circuits-- one for a refrigerator, and one for the fan for the natural gas furnace.

Yup, I have friends along the Texas coast that have them, presumably for the same reasons as you're considering.

I don't think I really need a whole-house setup, but the option to cut-off from city power and run my own small genny on those two circuits, would be quite interesting at this point.

F it. This has to be, by far, the longest thread known to man. It would be even longer if me and UTee wouldn't have deleted a million posts.

My quote is $17-19K, but that will run everything, including the pool.

No gas here, so my only choice is diesel. Generac. Made in Wisconsin.
