Electricity back on

You know I just paid my bill, early too. There must have been an accident, lots of sirens blaring right after outage.

@oahuwriter Just because you paid and paid early doesn't mean they don't like to have some fun sometimes. If I worked at a power plant, I'd tease people by turning off their electricity right in the middle of a good show on TV. I could always say some machine in the power plant went "off-line" for a few minutes. How would anyone know it didn't?

@DaddyEvil Young man, businesses doesn't do that. There's people on oxygen, life support etc, so no one plays with it.

@oahuwriter I know it would be a problem being without electricity for many hours.

@LadyDuck It is. I sometimes watch early morning tv, but it's what Spectrum does, occasionally.

Very much so! I enjoy lots of things with electrical use.

@oahuwriter But it's a good thing when that happens. We hear on the news of those who are without power for way too long (days and days) - that would really make me scream!

Yes, by the time I finished complaining, notifying looked outside to see who else and myself had the outage, sat down to my twitter...you know I had to tweet & mylot about it , poof my fan started blowing again.

@much2say I know. It's pitiful, hours of outage. Can't even imagine for days of outage.

I do hope that they will give you discount for the disruption

I see. I get tweets from Hawaiian Electric, my electricity company.

@id_peace No, locally, no use no charge, so far for residential, I've not seen any reimbursement for the disruption. It goes on, really quickly, so far.

@oahuwriter we use a Raju, no price increases. The last one we bought lasted about eight years ago a huge savings from using cable tv

@MarshaMusselman Is it like hulu? I don't have wifi.

No, just digital cable tv service. Price went up just last payment!

@oahuwriter Yes, he was working to change a plugin, in another room. To do this, he needed to turn off the electricity to that part of the house.

@kobesbuddy All ok and finished now?

I just turned my coffee to brewing, then almost done, outage happened! Did Jay turn your kitchen electricity back on again, I hope?

So true! Here on Oahu, no really exceptional cold weather, but it can be humid and hot!

Wow, you & I electricity outage, de ja vue! I've just my stove clock to fix when outages happen. There were sirens blaring so I guess there was an accident that caused accident. Well, we both got our electricity back now.

@oahuwriter

@DianneN Outages bad, I know.

Then you're covered. Must have been an accident, sirens blaring right after outage. By the time I reported it, tweeted about it, posted at mylot about it, checked who else nearby had the outage, complaining under my breath, fan blew again.

@oahuwriter Most likely scenario in this case.

@Deepizzaguy No, usually, power back on in 29 minutes.

Usually, it comes back by 20-30 minutes. Heard sirens, right after outage, so must have been an accident.

It is warm and sunny, but I heard sirens soon after outage, so most likely, there was an accident. We had no such warning, too so yet. Sometimes, Spectrum has long updating equipment, then they send me an email about it, but this is done usually midnight till about 4 am.

Thanks, you too!
