Re: Power outage in North East

Sounds huge and probably bigger than just a single plant.  Watching the
MSNBC/CNN feeds in the NOC shows everyone filing out of NYC on foot b/c
of lack of subway and traffic-light-induced gridlock.

The primary affect we've seen so far is the drop off in customer traffic
based on CPE being offline.  No real hit to infrastructure yet.

Has anyone heard of a big Power outage in the North east?

I just got a call from one of my tech’s in the GBLX bldg in Newark, NJ at 1085 raymond and they are telling him that they lost power!

But I also got a call from AT&T in NY that they also lost Power!
