It’s almost like we’re getting a preview of what Sniffy Biden’s “green” energy grid is going to be like…
This was not a transformer fire, this was a 17Kv line that broke and hit the ground. I have video of the line arching and burning the ground
This is one of those times that I wish we could post videos in the comments… Grats on getting some awesome footage!
