Power Failure in NYC

Posted on 07/13/2019 5:24:25 PM PDT by Rumplemeyer

There has been a major power failure in Manhattan, from Midtown, West to the Hudson River. Times Square is dark, no Traffic Lights or Street Lights and West Side Subway service is down. No reports of mayhem...yet.

Twitter reports on the ground in NYC that more buildings are losing power, it seems to be spreading. Evacuating Madison Square Gardens in middle of JLo concert.

“Seriously? What have you been watching all day”

I haven’t been watching anything all day since I had been working. I was looking forward to see Judge Janine and then having every program preempted by this repetitious Reporting that covers nothing new.

Well I’ll avoid Fox News Channel tonight.

Are they sure that people aren't evacuating because she sucks?

Fox reporting 44,000 manhatten customers lost power.

In the whole scheme of things that’s not major imo


Each highrise is considered 1 single customer is my understanding, so it’s pretty bad.

expect NY to declare state of emergency and request federal funding - and Trump will comply - what a scam.

Had to flip fox off.

Who wants to hear lelan bitters try to sensationalize a blown transformer in NYC?

Cheap & easy to get on the scene reporting in NYC compared to a crew to produce “barry” coverage.... which has gone stale.

NYC is not Tornado Alley. It’s more like sharknado alley.

Now that’s some drama

That sequel had more corn than a Kansas farm field but it was still underrated. I wish Russell and Carpenter had enough gas left in their tanks to make one more good one and cap off an Escape trilogy. You know, Snake goes out in a blaze of glory, the sidekick he picked up along the way (the one who lost his right eye in a knife fight earlier in the movie) stands there with a dead Plissken at his feet, and we see him don his old leather jacket and eye patch, then walk off into the horizon, leaving it an open-ended story. Now, that would be cool.

Sorry did not mean to sound so harsh.

But honestly, FOX is like every other network station...they run with every disaster as non-stop coverage even when there isn’t much to say yet. OhI love to have updates and report pivotal points, but what are we going to do about these things that aren’t happening to all of us? Does it warrant 100% coverage?

OTOH, at least these ARE “URGENT” or “BREAKING” or even the latest favorite “ALERT”, unlike what Trump stated in reply toAOC.

Well, I must say that the deplorables who live in Tornado Alley or Hurricane Alley are not overly impressed. We start announcing numbers when they hit 250,000.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

True dat.

Paralyzed a whole city or region. off the grid........ sometimes for 10-12 days

Not saying l don’t sympathize with the city folk.

But once every 40 years is no biggie. imo
