for a whole lot of people across the atlantic seaboard after
the last storm system (a 'derecho' -- never heard of that). Lots of trees
around lots of power lines so lots of downed wires, just like in ice
storms. I think there were several million households out of power
at the peak of it, some didn't have power restored for a week. We
were lucky and the power (ours comes in underground) stayed on.
We had our summer outage earlier -- just a couple of blocks after some
transformer or coupling or something went. And that kind of outage
is just going to get worse when everyone starts plugging their cars into
the grid to charge at night I expect. No time for the transformers
to cool down. That Chevy Volt sure sounds like a great solution, eh?
