...after distribution lines that send power from the plant to the electric grid became inoperable because of the weather.

So then, the fact that it is a nuclear power plant is totally irrelevant. It is useless to continue producing electricity at ANY power plant if said electricity cannot be sent to the grid.

This was a distribution system failure, not a nuclear power plant failure.

“So then, the fact that it is a nuclear power plant is totally irrelevant. “

Not really. Some of us realize that power outtages caused 3 nuclear melt -throughs (Fukushima) leaving the radioactive fuel for those 3 power plants washing into the air, ocean and ground water for the rest of our lives. I know nuclear power is protected by the government and the public doesn’t get much information at all so I think it’s ok to at least put in print that it lost power.
