Are you in Chesapeake or are you hearing this from radio or TV?
"God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787

The lights just flickered here, but I didn't know what it was. Another guy who works here came in a few minutes ago and said they were talking about it on the radio. People were calling in saying they saw a giant fireball from the Highrise Bridge.

WAN: Wide Area Network. The Supreme Court is essentially the ISP for our subordinate courts. None of the routers, switches or servers in the court houses located in the Tidewater Area have lost VEPCO power and switched over to battery backup at this time, hence none of our courts in Hampton Roads have lost power at this time!

A power transformer probably exploded, it's happened before, it will happen again. Usually happens because they don't properly maintain them.
