Mark CrockerWoohoo! Power's back on, and more importantly heating... it's chilly out there, and in here, but not for much longer on the latter π
It looks like a pretty small outage by #Memphis #MLGW standards. They seem to think it's only 1120 users who are effected.
Memphis power outage! I'm in South #Memphis, and will be showing in the dark π
According to the map https://outagemap.mlgw.org/OutageSummary.php downtown is out too, but I haven't checked. The map shows a few other areas out too, but #MLGW often under reports outages in this page.

Covidiocracy#MLGW & #TVA have announced a program to help subsidize the cost of small businesses converting to #LED lighting. Apparently they'll cover up to 70%.
BlueNewsMay 5 - 11 is Drinking Water Week and a great time to recognize the dedicated men and women who keep our drinking water clean, safe and delivered on time, every time. Thank you for everything you do! #DrinkingWaterWeek @awwa #MLGW @MLGW
@ampersine it is not at all clear from some of the #MLGW alerts, but the reason nothing had been detected is because they don't even start to test until _after_ the problems have been fixed and the pressure returns to >20 PSI. See https://www.mlgw.com/news/News11924bwadcisory just before the last pair of bullet points
It's also funny that the alert comes to us from the future: January 26, 2024 π
