Is it 8% of Victorians without power or 25%?
The ABC says 500,000 people whereas the Age says 500,000 homes.
Whichever, it's probably the biggest power outage ever in the state and the word is it will take a couple of days or more to get it back on.
I don't expect there'll be many people who've lost power who are able to get on the internet.
The storm has arrived here. It's wet and windy with thunder and lightning. The kangaroos are sheltering under trees.
