Puerto Rico's power grid fails hours ahead of potential arrival of tropical storm



PR's power grid didn't even wait for the tropical storm to arrive to fail. lol

Cut this place lose. The US doesn't need it.

A day before potential Tropical Storm Isaias was expected to bring rains and winds to Puerto Rico, at least 400,000 customers throughout the island were left without power.


The outage affected multiple municipalities — from cities in the metropolitan area such as San Juan and Guaynabo to the mountainous towns of Jayuya and Naranjito to the coastal town of Cabo Rojo in the southwest.

But even on Wednesday morning, hours before the storm was expected to be felt across the island and people and officials prepared for its effects, an internal spat within Puerto Rico’s bankrupt electric utility company dominated early headlines.

Following Tuesday night’s outage, executives and workers for the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority, PREPA, could not agree on what caused the widespread blackout, as the utility’s head blamed it on “internal terrorism” and called for a federal investigation.

Yep, hope the power stays on. Getting heavy rain now and wind. I got in today the movie Far and Away, my youngest daughter has never seen it. We are about to watch it.

We are getting rain here. Some heavy gusts, not a lot.

It was past us by 11am. Not bad at all.

I was west of the eye, so winds picked up around 2am when I lost power until 4am. Got power back at 7am. It wasn't bad here either.
