Unsettled Weather...



Well, its late summer in the Northern Neck & the weather is performing as usual.  Hot humid days & strong pop-up thunder storms.  These storms come out of nowhere sometimes & pack strong winds, lightning, hail, & heavy rains. 

As soon as you are aware of these storms, begin to take action.  Secure anything outside that can become airborne in the winds.  Disconnect any expensive electronics.  Make sure you have your flashlights ready.  Listen to the radio to keep updated on the storms progress.

Do you have a generator in case the power goes out???  The power in King George is notorious for going out if a toothpick falls onto a power line.  Gateway Power carries a wide variety of generators in stock to keep your lights on!!!

How about that tree that fell down across the driveway?  Do you have a chain saw to cut the tree into manageable pieces to get it out of the way??  Stihl has the saw for every need, & Gateway Power is a Stihl Elite Dealer!!!

Do you remember September 18, 2003???  That is the day that Hurricane Isabel came thru Virginia & decimated the state.  Here in King George, power was out for some for over 6 days. 

Let us assist you in beinig prepared for that next storm.
