AND YET

AFTER THE WORST OF THE STORM ***HAD***ALREADY***PASSED***

WE LOST POWER FOR AN ENTIRE DAY???????

i'm still salty af

See, what happened was the hurricane rolled through, wiggled some things in the power plant, but nothing broke.

It did push some stuff around, though, and people moving things around to keep them from harm before the storm left a few stacks of boxes in somewhat precarious arrangements.

So, the day after the storm, everything was okay, people were watching the power all nice, and then, suddenly BANG! one of those stacks of boxes fell over, and the inspector dropped his coffee in surprise, shorting out the monitoring systems, causing an emergency stop to all the power!



Moral of the story: Coffee is gross.
