We're watching in Kentucky. There's nothing being reported as of yet. Networks and grids are nominal.

From the spread of surge/outage, it's probably Quebec Hydro again. They're getting their revenge.

Come to think of it, something similar happened on Halloween, 1938.

Anybody see a greenish streak in the area of Trenton, New Jersey? :-)

My building in Stamford, CT is down.

After 9-11, be careful how you say that.
