HUGE blackout back east

Recommended Posts

Fire at a transformer that is part of a ConEd plant--since I work at a power plant, we heard about it about 2 minutes after the grid went down.

 

Basically, the region was just overloaded, and the surge caused by the loss of the transformer is enough to take the grid down.

 

On the plus side, the price we were selling power for doubled right about then too :D
