  Here are the three things. Even on James one oh five. Over seventy
• 0:05
  thousand people without power in Wake County last night because of those crazy storms.
• 0:10
  It was level three out of four, which I know. We were coming
• 0:12
  in and it was like all of a sudden, the clouds like the end
• 0:14
  of the world was coming. I was in North Hills having dinner and the
• 0:17
  restaurant lost power for a few minutes. So Wade did not lose power,
• 0:21
  one of the few, but a lot of our folks in the surrounding areas.
• 0:24
  But if you were listening to G one oh five this morning, you
• 0:27
  did not here nothing is this because we run on dour cell batteries and the
• 0:32
  battery was dead. An Trevor was the station's hero, so hopefully they had.
• 0:38
  You know, we had uh forty eight mile per hour wins in Raleigh
• 0:41
  and almost sixty mile per hour wins in Fayetteville last night, so it was
• 0:44
  definitely a big storm. I had to come in and get on you know
• 0:46
  the bike that they did. And the Wake County Public School System said that
• 0:52
  there is more than one hundred thousand dollars in unclaimed lunch accounts. This is
• 0:55
  for students that either graduated or moved to other districts. My first thought was,
• 0:59
  they have angel accounts of the schools, why not donate it to those
• 1:02
  that those cannot afford lunch. That would be a great alternative. And even
• 1:06
  Zoom is requiring their workers to go back to the office at least two days
• 1:10
  a week. The ones that started remote work, basically, they are making
• 1:14
  their own team members go back because they said it's better for everyone. So
• 1:19
  there's that. That's the three things we need to know.
