kinda, yeah...

 NA>  Is power unreliable or is it just once in a blue moon?

it happens occasionally... this time was due to high winds, a lot of rain, and
some flooding... saturated ground doesn't hold trees up very well when big
winds are blowing... i'm not sure where the trees got blown over but i know
that some part of our grid goes through a swamp... i stayed inside, this time,
instead of going out surveying the area like i normally do... the crews like
it when i show up wearing my hi-vis vest and white hardhat just checking on
the repairs progress or letting them know about another area that needs
attention :lol:
