I lost power at 3AM and power was back on at 4:20PM, in Katy, TX, far west Houston.

I was watching the coverage on the networks last night, and every time they saw a "blueish flash" they thought mean a transformer had blown.

More likely, it was a power line in contact with a tree, or an adjacent power line.

You can fix that in a by replacing a fuse. A transformer takes a while to replace.

I saw so many blue/greenish lights last night. I figured it was something minor and was really not surprised when power was back on. In my neighborhood, one can blink and power goes off.

I heard that over and over again, transformer blowing...that's the news for you...making up news...I sent the local station an email letting them know how fast my power was back on...and ask them why aren't they reporting that...
