The more you know!

Rain and wind today, but not wide spread outages. We did see a spike though around the state, from the coast to central Oregon. The highest number at one time was somewhere above 5,000. Tomorrow is still supposed to be breezy so expect some more spikes throughout the day.

Stay safe and dry!

Happy Last Day of Meteorological Summer to those that celebrate! It was another busy week of generator installation for our amazing team last week. Plenty of propane tank installation too. A lot of people don't realize that Generac generators can run on natural gas OR propane depending on what's available or desired. And yes, we do both 😊

Hoping everyone has a fantastic week to kick off September in the PNW!

Should be a mildly interesting week!

PNW EARLY-SEASON WIND RISK WEDNESDAY💨🌲🌧️🍂a strong-for-early-September storm system will move into the Pacific Northwest on Wednesday, bringing widespread rain along with increasingly gusty winds! Across western Washington, western Oregon and northwestern California, the strongest winds are currently favored along the coast and in Washington, the Northwest Interior as a cold front approaches and eventually moves through Wednesday into Wednesday night. Although wind alerts may not be issued, this system could still produce more impacts than the numbers alone would suggest. One important factor is that the trees still have their full summer foliage. Leaves significantly increase the surface area exposed to the wind, putting additional stress on branches and entire trees. Combine that with trees already stressed or weakened following a dry summer, and it may take less wind than during a typical late-fall or winter storm to cause problems. As a result, isolated power outages and some downed or broken tree branches will be possible Wednesday, particularly where the strongest gusts occur. A few weakened tree branches could also come down. There remains uncertainty regarding the exact track and strength of the system, which will ultimately determine how strong the winds become. Right now, this does not look like a major Pacific Northwest windstorm, but it is an early-season system worth watching closely because of the increased vulnerability of fully leafed and drought-stressed trees. Rain, gusty winds and much cooler temperatures will make Wednesday feel much more like fall across the region💨🌲🌧️🍂

Oh, we are SO back! Pro tip: get your standby generator installed BEFORE you need it, not after.

Another awesome review from another awesome customer:

"From our initial inquiry and estimate with Meghan and Justin to the extensive trenching and cement pad installation led by Luis, every step of our generator installation was handled with care and professionalism. Will managed the permitting and scheduling, while John, Alex, and Rus completed the natural gas and electrical work with the same attention to detail. We appreciated the team’s clear communication, careful coordination, and high-quality workmanship throughout the process. We would confidently recommend this company to anyone considering a generator installation." - Daryl ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Love to see when our team gets recognized individually!

And of course, a big THANK YOU to Daryl for taking the time to leave a review and for being great to work with.

Our sales lead Justin was in Sisters yesterday and took this awesome picture. Can you spot what’s keeping an eye on him?

Pumpkins at the grocery store. Halloween decorations at Disneyland. Pumpkin spice lattes coming next week. And our first potential chance for Fall weather. You can feel it right?

There’s a signal in guidance that a fall-like frontal system could bring big weather changes to the PNW around the beginning of September, give or take a day! Along with guidance support, the Climate Prediction Center is indicating the potential for a wetter pattern during this timeframe. This is still more than a week out so changes in the specifics are likely🌧️

A long day in the Century West neighborhood for nearly 1,000 people as they've been without power since about 10:00 AM due to a power shutoff. Initial restoration time of 3:00 PM has now been pushed back to 8:00 PM. With a high of 88 degrees today, not something we like to see.

We’ve received a few hand written notes over the years and there’s always something a little extra special about them. The biggest takeaway from this one? We have an AWESOME team and equally AWESOME customers. We’re grateful for both. This is also probably one the fastest ways to get yourself a raise 😉 Huge shout out to Ashton for providing an excellent experience and being an incredible part of NW Generator Pros!
