Lats night, early after midnight found that only 1/3 of house has power.but my computer and one light was not affected. Breakers were fine, looked outside and it was dark, not even street lights were on. Found out that high voltage lines lost 2 phases in large part of this side of town. After an hour all power was lost for 2 hours until repairs were done.

Houses in the UK tend to be single phase, but parts of the street will have the other two phases.

I have 90A 3 phase service here. 220V single and 380v between phases. Normal service is 45A but I heat electrically so had to make it stronger

A site I found out about today: NUKEMAP by Alex Wellerstein
The small tactical nukes are not included, it seems only strategic are used.

I'm toast if they hit the Joint Command Centre at Northwood, but I knew that already.

Don't feel bad, if anybody hits anything we are all roast.

Yep. At least I'm close enough that I won't know anything about it.

Being somewhere in the middle, I think I would have to worry about New York City, Baltimore or DC getting hit.

Made 2 large orders for computer and electronic parts this week. First one courier f'ed up for 5 days and today it came half filled with most important parts missing. second order I made today to a company that advertises same day delivery and they didn't even acknowledged order let alone send it. I was reworking my PC's case and it's gonna stay in pieces all over the table at least until Monday or Tuesday, Keeping my new kitten "Turbo" of it will be a chore. 2 guesses why she's called Turbo.
