Power and Internet outages nationwide...SITREP please
« on: July 18, 2015, 02:09:39 PM »
In the military (at least the Army) we have what is called a SITREP. Nothing sneaky, stands for SITuational REPort. Basically, report on what the situation is in your neck of the woods.

In conjunction with Jade Helm 15, which is a controversial military training in CONUS, South-West states, there are reports of power and internet outages in large cities across the country. I highly doubt these reports though I thought I would ask.

SITREP request. Please report the state of power and internet in your community.

Salt Lake City is clear
Nashville, Tennessee (checked with a friend this morning)

I see nothing online at all about major outages other then a vault fire in california.

Unless some select group is screaming chicken little about utility conspiracies

It would take 3 months for my power to go out as I'm stocked up on fuel for the generator, as well as water, food, medicine, toiletries.
No, I'm not a prepper, I'm married to an ex-Level 1 Trauma nurse who's job for a while was Disaster Coordinator for the entire hospital. :)

Plenty of ammo and game in the back yard after 3 months. 50 lbs of salt and sugar make good curing agents. :)

Keep in mind, we're all just one big solar flare away from being back in the stone age. Better to be prepared than dependent on a government or neighbors.

Boo, buddy, your request is illogical.  The only folks that could respond will be those that have not lost internet and power.  Not to thump you my friend but just pointing it out.  Phoenix is fine therefore because I have responded  :salute

What does any of that have to do with the question asked?????  Seems you lack any local intel.  Perhaps you might want to come out of the bunker long enough to talk to a next door neighbors, just in case the world hasn't ended.

Central Florida has been experiencing power outages in declining cycles. The first one happened at 10:24AM local time and lasted 4 minutes. 2nd event transpired 25 minutes later and lasted 3 minutes. We are currently in a rapid loss and recovery situation.

Local tv news has speculated that The House of the Mouse might be testing something experimental in their R and D proving ground code named Tomorrowland.  Aerial footage has shown the Orca whales at Sea World have been Riverdancing to the tune of Thriller.

These could be misinformation.

More details to... cut transmiss

We have no power in California,  actually we have a constitutional crisis right now.

It's raining and the constitution guarantee all a day of sunshine everyday.   We think it's the dang navy seals invading CA and we all know they can't survive in dry land.
