Still have power in my neighborhood, for now, but voltage at the wall is down to 116V so it's struggling, and spot price is up to $1540 per megawatt-hour lol. don't know if a base load plant tripped or if a transmission line blew up or what but this is crazy. fuck @entergy.com as always #neworleans
