I've not seen any power lines down, but there's nothing to say it's not tangled that tree yet.

83, 89 on 104.

Nobody was expecting.

As soon as I figure out what we need to hear, I'll get it available.
04:30
Yeah, that's fine.
04:31
I was just going to say 104 at just west, or east of 75, there's another one down over there, walking part of the road.

Understood, 104, east of 75.

I'm not going to step close to this one.

It's leaking, I can hear it.
