Has anyone local driven by 20th Ave and 32nd St-ish area? Taped off or any fire damage?
no excuse for this, faults on the transmission system are supposed to clear within 4-8 cycles of system frequency, faults that last this long are normally detrimental to system stability and thankfully only a small area lost power
Ahhhhh, remember when we thought THIS was the end of the world?
If you know what an arc welder or arc furnace is, you are basically looking at that, only at a MUCH higher voltage and uncontained.
YOOO EARTHCAM REALLY CAPTURED THIS? WOW! THIS IS SO COOL!
