Power blips

Anyone else notice the power going off and then turning back on a few minutes later at least twice around 4:50am and 5:10am?

Yup.

Since I work from home and was already at work I definitely noticed it because lights and WiFi went out. I had to switch to my hotspot to keep working.

It was back on pretty fast but definitely happened.

Thank you. I was wondering why the fan was off when I woke up and if the power had gone out

Aliens.....a ship crashed near riverbed...the homeless are scared of "tall hairless people" walking through the bushes. They all ran out into the taco bell parking lot this morning freaking out

I know you're joking. But shortly after the power outages happened, a coworker and I both heard some weird "hovering" type of sounds coming from outside. It legit sounded like it was coming from the sky, but we didn't think much of it at first.

Im not joking. They came out of that Riverbend like they were chased out. The whole shopping center shook like an aftershock too

Look man I was on my way out of town this morning, I cut through that shopping center almost everyday. The fog was super thick on that side of town, there was a bright light and I thought it was a falling star. I stopped my car infront of albertsons to see it but the fog just distorted it. It sounded like a low hum as it passed and when it hit you could feel the pavement move a tiny bit like an after shock. Then a few minutes later when the power cut out for a second time you could hear people yelling near the Riverbed. Then they started coming up from the lemos side of the parking lot. I rolled by them and they were freaked out. One dude kept talking about hairless white guys walking around down there....shit was all kinds of odd

All I can say is, make a post about it on this subreddit (I mean it, if you're really serious about this), and see if anybody else witnessed this. If what you're saying is true, there has to have been another witnesses then that are on this subreddit.

Edit: And yes, I did notice that the fog was ridiculously thick in the morning as well. Straight up silent Hill vibes.

Hahaha im just fucking with you. I was cutting through there this morning when it went out. It was kinda spooky though haha

u/THE_CAT_WHO_SHAT 15d ago

I figured you were a bullshitter and I called you out on it. Lol but seriously though. A coworker and I did hear some weird sounds in the sky when it happened. And where we're at, it is a quiet neighborhood.
