Storm Season Power Outages: How Homeowners Decide on a Whole-Home Backup Generator

There is a particular kind of quiet that settles over a house when the power goes out during a storm. The refrigerator stops humming, the lights die, and suddenly every convenience that runs on electricity is simply unavailable. For a brief outage it is an inconvenience. For a multi-day outage in the middle of storm season, it becomes something more serious: spoiled food, no heat or cooling, a flooding basement with a dead sump pump, and no way to charge the phones connecting a family to the outside world. It is in these moments that many homeowners start seriously considering a whole-home backup generator.

Big-Money Fishing Tournaments Make a Splash on Florida’s Coast

As the first hint of cooler temperatures emerges on Florida’s Historic Coast, the marinas and waterways of St. Augustine and Ponte Vedra become a proving ground for anglers chasing trophy fish, bragging rights and serious prize money. This fall’s lineup of fishing tournaments and events includes daily winner-take-all payouts reaching $75,000, drawing competitive and recreational anglers to the region during the traditionally quieter fall travel season.

There’s a reason serious anglers hold space on their calendars for Florida’s fishing tournaments. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) calls Florida the “Fishing Capital of the World,” with more world-record fish catches than any other state or country. Recreational saltwater fishing generates an estimated $9.2 billion in economic impact statewide. Pair that with the Historic Coast’s history, natural beauty and first-class lodging and amenities—which helped generate more than $2.4 billion in visitor spending in St. Johns County in 2023—and the region offers anglers plenty of reasons to stay beyond weigh-in.

HOME COUNTRY: I always wondered what it would be like to putter.

I always wondered what it would be like to putter. I don’t mean golf. I haven’t done that kind of puttering since I played miniature golf in high school. That wagon wheel always messed me up, so I decided to leave my golf career right there and participate in more active pursuits.

But now here I am puttering. This came about naturally because my doctor told me to slow down, and I plan to enjoy every snail-like minute of this advice. Part of it is my age (I’m in double figures now. And they ain’t small double figures.) and part is my doctor giving me advice I’ve been wanting to hear for a long time now.
