Breaking: Major power outage in Annapolis MD. Reports of "fire in the sky"

[icwhatudo]

Relative on Eastern shore says all lights out on Western side of Bay Bridge. Green and red lights in sky.

I’ll bet 50 bucks the official cause will be a flight of lost geese on their way back from their Mayan holiday...

Actually Art is now living in Pahrump for good and I was just talking to him on our local frequency out here.. He is doing well and retired from radio :)

There are 24 time zones worldwide.

There are actually 40. A number of places (for example, Newfoundland) are offset by a fraction of an hour.

[montanajoe]

The wife has folks in Asia saying the local crazies are asking if anyone knows what time zone the end is supposed to occur in...they assumed it was theirs...

[Heart-Rest]

Title of article reminds of a little diddy called, “Fire In The Sky” from the CD, “To Touch The Stars.”... If I’m going to go out in a blaze of glory blasting zombies away during the end of the world I might as well be listening to some great tuneage while I’m at it!

Well, here's a couple more old songs from different genres that might fit this breaking story (sort of...)

     Turn Out The Lights The Party's Over - Willie Nelson

     Boom Boom, Out Go The Lights - Little Walter

     The End Of The World - Skeeter Davis

Miss Art on Coast and miss his pics of his little girl. She must be getting so grown up now.

Some Army folks still taking that loss to Navy pretty hard?

I had not heard anything about him in last several years, or since we exchanged a short email.
I never understood why he would settle in Manila instead of Visayas.
I assume he is still married.

The Mayans are invading?

Sounds like transformers blowing. We had some here the other day, lost power, lines down due to winds. Sparks and ‘fire’ in the sky.

[carolinablonde]

That would freak me out if I saw that.

During Sandy I looked out my upstairs window of my house on Long Island and saw transformes blowing all abound. Didn’t see reds, but plenty of whites and especially greens and orange. Things repeated a week later when the Nor’easter blew in. The linked vid is clearly a main transformer blowing.

All I wanna know and grasp is when I flip a switch, a light will come on. :-)

That’s why you NEVER go to warp within 10 lunar distances from the planet!

[RedMDer]

It wasn’t me. I was about 85 miles away. I know nothing, nothing :)

[Ezekiel]

It’s the end of MArYlANd !<<<

If you remove 'rld' from MArYlANd, you are left with 'MAYAN' and 'rld'.

>>>(with the exception of a few MD FReepers, that really wouldn’t be the end of the world)<<<

I'm sorry to say that 'rld' IS the end of the world.

wo!!!

[Hot Tabasco]

What could it be?

Since we're all still here, it's gotta be aliens, no doubt about it.......

[Cowgirl of Justice]

In the past three years, I have seen three 60+ foot oak trees fall in wind storms. It is absolutely terrifying to watch them fall in slow motion.

Any updates on Md?

[Tax-chick]

LOL!

[chrisser]

Any updates on this?

I saw this thread last night, but there doesn’t seem to be much info out there on the news or FR this morning.
