I've seen a transformer go, it was blue and lasted about 15 seconds.

Weird that there were so many colours?

Yeah, I have too. Maybe it was because this was a full sub station and not just a transformer. Those are generally just white and blue.

Annapolis, home of the U.S. Naval Academy, is in the dark along with most of Anne Arundel County.

I just got off the phone with my sister, she lives in Anne Arundel County, a ten minute drive to Annapolis, and she didn't mention it. I called to wish her a Happy Birthday.

There seems to be quite a few videos popping up. This news article ( [link to z6mag.com] ) has a lot of them and the tweets are pretty consistent. This definitely isn't a hoax.

50,000 without power still.

Heavy winds are going to make restoration much worse.

I wouldn't be surprised if this lasted all night.

It's about 30 mins away in Ft. Detrick, Maryland probably not affected. Anne Arrundel county is pretty separately established.
