St. Louis Power Outage Explained | St. Louis News

Over 3,000 St. Louis City residents plunged into darkness Saturday afternoon as a cascading substation failure triggered widespread outages—especially in Clifton Heights and Northampton. While weather played no role, crews raced to fix the initial equipment glitch, only for a second failure to compound the problem. By 6 p.m., most were back online, with outages down to just 200 in the city and 130 in the county. A frustrating domino effect, but power’s mostly restored—just another reminder of how fragile our grid can be. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
