Information about blue lights and electrical problem in NYC excerpt and link below:

A transformer fire in Queens sent an eerie blue light flooding the nighttime sky as electricity flickered in homes and an airport was plunged into darkness Thursday.

Con Edison says a brief electrical fire involving transformers broke out at the substation on 20th Avenue and 32nd Street in Astoria, causing a transmission dip in the area...snip

The tower responded, “You don’t know what it is?”
“Negative,” the pilot said. “Blue-green color, does not look like typical flames.”

If I find anything on the site with Century Link outages, I’m going to post replies to this post to keep it all together.”

“Electromagnetic/solar storm/mini Carrington event?”

There was a low level geomagnetic storm in progress. Suspicious 0bservers thinks this was the cause of the electrical outbreaks and could have impacted the Century Link issue.

With Earth’s weakening magnetic field, things that would previously have had no effect, can now causing disruptions.
