Re: Northern Viriginia Power

[Kevin Loch <kloch () opnsys com>]

My house in Reston showed initial power loss at 12:06pm, fully restored
by 13:45.
The construction of the Fairfax County Parkway segment by the
Reston Town Center is probably the culprit.  In recent days
I have seen work done to the main distribution lines that go
through/across that segment.
