FReeper report: Miami Int'l Airport B Concourse -- No Power
Posted on 05/23/2004 5:01:41 PM PDT by getmeouttaPalmBeachCounty_FL
My husband is supposed to be traveling tonight. He called me 20 minutes ago to announce that Miami's Airport has lost all power...at least in the B Concourse.
An update from him a few minutes ago is that the PA announcement stated that power will be out for at least the next half hour. Attempts to restore power have so far failed. All computers are down. Backup generators have some emergency lighting, but that is all at this time.

Well, I was hoping it would happen after supper, but since I'm cooking for myself tonight, I guess that's a certainty....

It's getting a little warm and dark. Whole airport went down, although most concourses are restored. B is a little bit steamy.

Steamier than usual, you mean. I was there in February at 8:30 am, and I thought it was steamy. Living in "steam central", Houston, that means something.
Miami needs to get the patent on steam. It would be worth billions. ;-)

While the lights are still out, could you ask for your husband to loot me a laptop computer from someones luggage? I really need one.
Thanks in advance.

This power outage stuff at airports has been happening all too frequently in recent weeks
