Bud Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 El Santuario area went out at 8:40PM last night, and had fits and starts until about 2:00AM this morning. We are back on the grid now. It was horrible during that outage. I unplugged as much as I could. Just after the outage began, I tried calling the electric utility, but could not get in. The phones were busy, busy, busy. That told me that it was a wide area outage rather than just our neighborhood. We also felt a tremor while without electricity, but I did not look at the clock. It lasted about 10 to 15 seconds, and felt kinda weak, like a 2.0 or less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whskyman Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 The tremor was actually a 4.6? Magnitude 4.6 earthquake Affected countries: Costa Rica and Panama 20 km from Puntarenas Province, Puerto Jiménez, Costa Rica · Sep 13, 8:36 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John R Hampton Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Power on finally in Volcancito. Part of Naturgy's (gasNatural fenosa) new global strategy to show sympathy for the people of the Carolinas (but without actually being there). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Doug Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 The outage was really widespread last night and included David according to at least one report. Everybody seemed to get restored around 2 this morning, except for Volcancito. It's frustrating, but, hey, it lowers the monthly electric bill.
