Power - help checking

countessalmirena — Tue, 13 Feb 2024 06:00:51 GMT

The power’s out here.

I’m also unable to load outagetracker.com.au - is anyone else able to get it up?

nope.

Outagetracker.com.au is DOWN

It is not just you. The server is not responding...

Outagetracker.com.au - Is Outagetracker Down Right Now? (isitdownrightnow.com)

Who's your provider?

I have AGL, and if I ring their emergency number, they have a recorded message to say which suburbs around me are out and how long to get it fixed.

Energy Australia, and the faults line doesn’t have any pertinent information.

My phone’s in dire need of a charge; I’ll have to manually open the garage door and charge the phone in my car. Air conditioning off here and I’m melting like a bad witch.

We lost electricity for a few hours here too due to the storm resulting in 'needing emergency repairs'

Stay safe, countess and may I suggest you get yourself a powerbank for your phone. Very hand in situations like this.

Ah the joys of living in the white-collar suburbs, methinks.

Storms go straight across the bay.

No power outages here in the north.

Hope the power doesn't take too long Contess, but the temp is dropping out there, at least.

Power is still out, and I have clients tomorrow who will need to sign documents that I can’t prepare without power…!

I’ll have to improvise.

Thank goodness that the temperature has indeed dropped.

In the morning, I will need to start the generator - first time.

Power came back up not long ago.

I hope everyone else is also empowered.

Now I’m off to the Blokes thread to tell the stirring true tale of Ichabod and the Terrible Predicament. (It all happened last night.)
