Power outtage - fixed
🕑 Added 2023-11-05 12:15:30 +0000 UTCHey everyone, finally power is back on (it got back yesterday close to midnight)
So basically what happened.
Since we are approaching summer (southern hemisphere here), around here we have something known as "Summer rain/storm". Basically we have a clean sky day with 25-35C temperature and on the afternoon everything get's supper cloudy and we have a 30min rain that's super intense and that's about it.
But this time around, for whatever climate thing going on atm, there were also +100km/h winds, which is something that really never happens.
Since our city infrastructure is usually not planned around things that do happen every so often, imagine for something that's extremelly rare. We have a running "meme" around here that everyone get's shocked/surprised by natural disasters that occurs around the same time every year.
A lot of fallen trees due to the winds, many points of the power grid were destroyed in the process so roughly 1/3rd of the city (which btw is the size of NY) had a power outtage. The city doesn't have the manpower to handle a situation like that so it took them almost 3 days to fix most of it (some places still don't have power). There were trees the size of oaktrees blocking an entire street a few blocks from my place.
And to make matters even more interesting, last night we started to ran out of water as well, since pumps were not working due to lack of electricity, eventually the building's water reserve ran out.
But night thankfully it was fixed last night so order is being restored. So I can finally get back to work.
I'll be posting the links to download the partial rewards today (Iris & maya halloween and morrigan) and then later this week (probably around wednesday or thursday) Cortana. I was planing to finish up Cortana over the weekend, but well, that didn't happen lol.
So I apologize for the delay this caused but it's something completely out of my control.

You're safe, that's the most important. 😊
I’m glad to hear that your power has been fixed. As for the “weather thing”, I’m not sure where you live, but I know that we have an El Niño going on right now that is affecting a lot of places weather. So, it could be that depending on where you are.
