Power Surge
« on: January 04, 2006, 07:22:09 PM »
Euclid Avenue experienced a power surge at about 6:40 pm on Tuesday, January 4th.  Most of the block was out and I'm told Grand Avenue near Ross was out too.

Lights blinked on and off every 5 seconds for about 5 minutes.  I've never seen anything like it.  Sure, black outs and brown outs, but not like this.

Anyone know anything? How far spread was it?

Okay - this is weird.   I was in Maywood at a friend's house,  nearly a straight run up from Euclid, a few blocks south of Bergen Mall.   The Christmas tree lights seemed brighter on and off, as did the dining room light.   They did not go off completely.  I thought it was my eyes but Hubby noted it also.  I don't recall the time, but it was Tuesday evening as we had already eaten dinner.
