GridEx II Tomorrow Nov 13-14
11/13/13 | An Insomniac of No Consequence

Posted on 11/12/2013 10:13:16 PM PST by CaptainPhilFan

Just a reminder, GridEx II is happening on Wednesday into Thursday across the US, Canada and Mexico.

They tried similar in England today/yesterday and the South London tubes lost power leaving rush-hour commuters stranded.

I cannot imagine what gave anyone the bright idea that trying this on a whole continent was a good idea.

Hopefully nothing terrible will happen. Hopefully I am just a nut-job worried over nothing.

Lots of info out there if you're interested.

Just sayin.

God be with us.

Yup. That’s one of the theories.
Glad to know someone else keeps up with these things.

“Mr. Dorgan says such an attack could cause 10,000 times as much devastation as the terrorists’strikes on Sept. 11,2001.”

That’s right...we’re talking about 9,110,000.

It’s 19 degrees outside right now. If we lose power in this section of the country.... Well, a whole lot of people and farms are going to be in trouble, some of it fatal.

I can see desperate people who haven’t prepared burning down houses and/or dying from carbon monoxide poisoning. And that’s just off the top of my head.

Folks - it’s a drill. We have several drills each year in the power industry, and this is one of them.

Skynet goes live in 2 hours 40 minutes.... ;-)

I’ve got 3 transformers at the back of my property.
At 2AM I was out getting some fresh air like I always do, and they were making the strangest noises.

Combination of an electrical whine and hum, like they were being revved. Never heard that before from them. Coincidence or something.
