Big Storm = Down

Good Evening Everyone,

Thank goodness my phone has internet on it so I can post this update.

There has been a rather large, rainy, windy storm go through East Peoria this evening. The building has lost one phase of our power which makes all the lights flicker like crazy and killed anything that needs both phases to get 220volts. Our system needs 220 volts, so we are down. We also have no internet at the moment, but that may just be a power issue.

I'm not surprised after the drive in. The technical institute at the end of our road lost it's big steel girder sign, it's now twisted all over the road, and there are tree's down all over the place here. It must have rained a ton as well because my office is 3/4 soaking wet, never seen so much water in here before. I've called Cilco to work on the power, but they have no idea when they'll be out. Until the fix it, I can't restart the system.

More updates as I know them.
