That’s funny because this also happened last night in NYC at the ConEd plant.

No one in the news is finding this odd? Two plants transformers explode? Is this typical with wind?

I read somewhere that a well-placed rifle shot could cause a transformer to explode.The point of that article was that a couple of terrorists with rifles could cause a bit of a disruption.

I’m not saying it happened here. Just making a side comment.

I think it’s odd.

Two totally unrelated incidents.

The issue in new york appears to be equipment failure, and the blue glow is from having anywhere between 345kV to 800kV grounding out.

The storm related failures is from trees knocking down the lines

Coincidentally, the latest Transformers movie also bombed.
