What's With All The Power Outages Today?

P.S. I already tried calling SMUD to no avail. MyFolsom members seem to be more "in the know" anyway, which is why I ask here.

Where in Folsom are you in? Guess we were lucky not to have any in Prairie Oaks.

Sorry, Camay; I thought posting in the North Folsom forum might give a hint that we are in North Folsom.
Glad to hear it isn't city-wide. The longest outage was this morning with each subsequent outage becoming shorter and shorter, until the last one just before I posted lasting less than one minute. Really messes with trying to do computer-based work at home this weekend.
If it continues I'll try calling SMUD during business hours tomorrow.

AZT, I didn't have any power outage today, but there were multiple issues with my company's VPN & programs. Sorry, but I haven't heard anything about what happened over on your side of town.

I think a lot of people go straight to the New Content section and don't really notice which forum messages were actually posted in. At least that's true for me.

Yes it does, but I don't really notice that when I look at the topic. I thought that others might not as well. Since the topic is bolder than the rest of the info., it's really all that stands out. Maybe it's just me.

Regardless of what forum topic a thread is posted in, people like to respond. And do.

All was well today. Out of curiosity, I called SMUD morning anyway. The rep asked if he could place me on hold while he researched it and when he came back about 10 minutes later said he could find no record of the incidents and wondered if it might have been isolated to our house. I responded that although I hadn't gone door to door to our neighbors to ask, I figured it was unlikely since during the first and longest outage my husband received a phone recording that the power was out for thirteen thousand six hundred and something residents. He then said something to the effect of maybe it was a fuse ???
Oh well. glad things are back on line today and I was able to get stuff done.
