There are thousands of people without electricity here in Tucson right now and I'm one of them in a very hard hit Area what confounds me and I need some explanation of is why we lose power when it is not provided by the electric company. We are supposed to be fully solar here.

Wires

As in downed, damaged in the grid generally? It happened suddenly and there was a loud noise when it went dark. Seemed maybe some infrastructure was hit with ground strikes hard. It was the wildest storm I've seen and heard here in decades. Still under extreme warnings too. :)
