Hmmm....I wonder what 105 Howitzers would do to it then?

There are some states like NJ mandating total conversion to wind and solar and EVs in the not to distant future.  Gov. Murphy (Stalinist) has indicated they want to make electricity so expensive it limits people's ability to travel. Or they can just turn the cars off remotely.

Heat, hail, floods, and other adverse weather in the great plains states cost farmers and ranchers millions of dollars every year. Nobody with sense mocks them and suggests they shouldn't even be trying to make a living where such things can happen.

Besides, baseball size hail is extraordinarily large. It would destroy most people's roofing. A few years ago we got hit by several hail storms of smaller sizes over the Black Hills area and the costs  to repair all the affected homes was in the millions.

Okay maybe I shouldn’t have laughed so hard. It’s just that solar power is so not practical, but I’d be more friendly toward it if the greenies and globalists would stop shoving it down our throats while killing coal, oil and nuclear.

  I've yet to see a hail storm take out a coal, hydro or nuclear power plant.

Our natural gas fired plant here has survived several hurricanes.
