Power is out… again.

Power outages have always happened in Seattle, but they seem to happen way more often now (but aren’t as long). My power seems to go out once a month regardless of time of year or weather, usually for like 5-8 hours before restoration. When I was a kid, power would go out like once or twice during storm season only, but could stay out for up to a week.

My power just cut in Northeast Seattle and I heard the telltale boom of a transformer blowing so who knows how long it’ll take to restore.
