Biochemky User ID: 919411 United States 09/09/2011 12:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just reported on local LA KCAL Channel 9 news that the cause was an employee moving equipment...WTF???? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1071143 Really, that seems like a load of BS! What about the explosion reported by people near the Salton Sea? I doubt some dumb bonehead would accidentally move equipment on one of the hotter days of the year and it would take out the entire power grid extending into AZ and Mexico! Our best guess on page 4 of this other thread: Thread: Breaking -New York and DC Going Under HOMELAND SECURITY ALERT & Multi City Multi State Sudden Power Outage (Page 4) ...is that the massive power outage was initiated when there was a geothermal explosion in/near the Salton Sea. There were multiple witnesses who heard a very loud explosion in that location. The idea is that the geothermal explosion was so hot that the heat charged the grid up and blew it. The explosion came from what channel 3 (multiple viewers) said was the abandoned area near the Salton Sea that is on this video. This area is the southern tip of the San Andreas fault in the salton Seismic Zone, as well as the Cerro Prieto Geothermal area and the Brawley Seismic Zone and geothermal area.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1541191 United States 09/09/2011 12:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Is it possible they shut down the grid in that area in order to protect the grid from damage from the incoming CMEs (they're supposed to shut down the grid to lessen the severity of the damage from an incoming CME, aren't they?) Quoting: firm1324 good lord NO, why? these are not huge CME's in particular and we don't know how intense the protons will be until they arrive, but this is no reason to shut down grids in one area of the world. we have yet to have any damage from a CME is a very long time now. If truly at all. The big problem years ago blamed on one, was sabatage, get you ones all set up for whatever games. |

They do have a big back up generator set up though, hopefully it tripped and came on right away.

TrixieMama User ID: 1311280 United States 09/09/2011 12:16 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Oceanside power is on all i saw is that there was an event between the arizona / california power line. very strange news said all military called back to base and national guard put on alert!!! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1541410 Thats standard. I was a military wife, anytime there is a widespread outage like this they can and likely will call you back to base. When we lived on the east coast ex was called back many times when snow storms took out power and the like. I'm not too worried about that part, now if jets scramble i'll start to worry.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1540853 United States 09/09/2011 12:16 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | they said "power was back on". Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1540853 can anyone confirm where the power is presently on and where it is out. come on calif. GLPers, there must be enough of you out there to post some real information about what you are seeing with your own eyes! use the internet dude. it's not on. SDGE is the power company: SDGE SDG&E Power plants will come on 1st to stabilize electric grid. They then feed substations, then homes. This takes time. #sdoutage #outage 27 minutes ago Favorite Retweet Reply next press conference at 10PM pacific well, i'm certainly never going to believe anything the authorities have to say. that's why i have asked calif. GLPsrs to look with their eyes and tell us what they see. . |

I thought it was half of that earlier being reported. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1525465 He said that was San Diego only. That doesn't include all areas as well as mexico. It will be more than 10 million total and the mainstream media is ignoring the largest blackout in global history. The question is why???? |
