Power Outage

Yesterday afternoon between 4:30 and 5:00 our power went out. Two summers ago there were outages several times throughout Antioch during a long heat wave. We lost power once I think. Most of those were caused by transformers overheating and blowing. Temps that summer ranged up to 115 here.

Sometime this spring our power was out for part of a Tuesday evening... don't know what caused it, but it was out for two or three hours.

Yesterday the outage was caused by a blown transformer underground between our house and our neighbor's. Only 17 homes were without power. They had to replace the transformer, and it must have been a tough job because the power wasn't restored until about 12:15. However, things are running now, and the house is cool. Hope you are too!
