So for the second time since living here, a F1 tornado came down my street. Landfall tornados are rare here but when they touch down it's almost always in a 25 square km area. Naturally I live at the center of that small area and on Tuesday one hit.
This time they got the power back on in about 16 hours but I was at work when the power went out and have a job where I can't just leave. So the long run UPS (4 hours) and small generator (no ATS) didn't help. When I can afford it, I'm getting a whole house generator with ATS.
The seedbox RAID arrays are about 90% done resyncing. After that I have to chkdsk all the logical drives. I can restore the qBittorrents profile backups and can hopefully restart the torrents without having to check them (which is a 4 day operation).
I have yet to walk around the yard and see what else is damaged. I hope the dead tree in the back didn't come down.
