power out!

There was a major power outage in Havana, Cuba and other towns surrounding it.They got power back on Monday and people started to return home. It was a transmission line that caused it to go out; a 220,000 volt line. It carried power from one town to another so it was important. The people aren't used to a big outage like this so it was unusual to them that this happened. The only time something like this happens is when a storm goes over. Also the temperatures were in the 70's- 90's so it was hot and humid and no electricity, that would suck!

  1. I think I would die if it was that hot out and there was no electricity. I especially hate when we have the power out here because it's kind of creepy how dark it is at night.
