You guys should get some wind turbines to supplement your power source


LOL, we don't have a supply problem. It's a POS transmission network that is completely soft.

It's probably something like a plastic bag got picked up in the wind and hit a wire at a substation, and shorted something out, and since we have no ability to easily redirect power, that's it.

It's not the storms that kill the utility systems in this city. It's the lack of daily, routine maintenance and hardening of the systems.

Power was out for about 5-10 minutes not a massive deal.

Drestroya is being proactive before the storm hits and is shutting down the grid.
