Power Outtage

[swashbucklr]

Anyone else lose power last night, around 4:30 AM? Anyone know why?

I'm up past Tufts, on Powder House Blvd.

Lost it on Broadway near Teele Square. I could see from my window (on Farragut and Broadway) that streetlights were out from about Teele Square Auto to the intersection of Broadway and Curtis and on all of the abutting side streets between those to places. The outage went from about 3:30 to 5 am. When I called NStar they said it was a problem with "high voltage equipment in the area."

By sheer coincidence I happened to have woken up a few minutes before it happened, which is good, because my alarm does not have a battery backup.

Anyone see a transformer blow up or anything?
