OLD-SCHOOL SEATTLE BLACKOUT ROLL CALL

[solarbird]

We got no power but goddamn we have a lot of UPSes. WHO'S STILL UP?

Still power in Olympia! Or, I guess, again power. It went out twice earlier, but not for very long.

[solarbird]

Ours went out twice for several seconds each time, but the third time was the final straw. NO POWERS FOR US! Except batteries, of course. We have those. :D

Still here.
(But I was out on an island ... and since our clocks weren't reset, I assume there wasn't a blackout at my house.)

[solarbird]

Still out of power here, next morning. No eta on the website, either. They're about 2/3rds of the way through the outage, by number of outages.

I'm up, on eljay, and in MLT - we still have power.

POOOOWERRRRRRRR

Still out here in Uplake, with no ETA either. PSE had almost 100,000 out by itself, and it's about a third of the way into restoration. At least it's a calm day. #earthquakeweather

Still on up here - I've turned on every light in the house and I'm going to go stand on my front lawn and bellylaugh for a good thirty minutes or so.

Lights flickered in Magnolia/Interbay a bit, and the clocks need to be reset, but we still have power.

[solarbird]

This was nuts here. Before we went down for real, we had multiple several-second blackouts, and we just don't come back from those usually.

Still out this morning, too.

lights flickered a few times in Green Lake, but no other issues. didn't even have to reset clocks.

[solarbird]

Even if we hadn't gone completely out we'd've had to reset all the clocks at least five times. I mean, if we were insane to insist upon doing it every time they reset before we lost power completely.

(spoiler: not that kind of insane)

Still out in Inglewood, probably since around the same time you lost yours.

We came back up during halftime on the Seahawks game, right as Anna was coming back with ice for the refrigerator. ^_^

[dakotaluna]

We came back on around 11. Well, now you have plenty of ice! ;-)

MAGIC ICE

We gave it to a friend of ours who was still without power; she left here about 20 minutes ago. Halfway home with the ice, her power came back on.

She is now on her way to a third person who does not have power. We are hoping their power comes back on before she gets there. MAGIC ICE :D
