The masses out there in mexifornia's tiajuania-north were very fortunate the "blackout" lasted only a few nano-seconds.Just think what would have happened if it had gone on for a few days or so.The third-world gangs that own the streets-n-byways of tiajuana-north san diego would have gone zulu-dawn on the population; rape-pillaging-n-plundering galore! All in the classic third-world style of Watts.So much for "Amerika's Finest City." Yep.
North Baja mexico supply's two major power lines to Calif. one located in Mexicali named theromoelectrica de Mexicali. the other in Rosarito Beach, with lines to Calif.
both were over loaded, and shut down. if solar flares were the cause, why didn't transformers burn out ? sub stations were effected and backed up to the actual supply...
All I wish they would do...is define a severed line. Pictures of it would be handy, too! So many stories about what was the cause...and not much follow-up or interviews on what was the cause.
@marthamclain Severed, when referring to transmission lines doesn't necessarily mean the the line is physically broken. A severed line could just refer to an interconnected line being disconnected by means of a breaker or disconnect. This video has a fairly accurate discription of what can happen and know that it can happen fast. Generators can only handle small deviations in frequency and then their protection systems will trip the unit off so that there is less chance of mechanical damage.
Warning shot across the bow of the boat. What would happen if it lasted a week a month or six months. Or never came back on at all. Riots beyond one's ability to think.

It was actually a time traveller implanted with a Faraday Mesh who upon his arrival drained all the power from the local grid. Niyah!
