Power & water outages

Every outage we log, by district — what caused it, when it started, and how long the supply was off.

AI-generated still life of water pouring into a glass in a home

This is our log, not GEBE’s records. GEBE announces outages on Facebook, which we can’t read automatically, so this is what we saw and verified — not every outage that happened.

01The outages on our record.

Nothing open in our log

An entry opens when we log an outage and closes when we record the supply coming back.

GEBE posts district notices on its Facebook page, which is where an announcement appears first.

02By district

21 districts · alphabetical, not ranked

Nothing logged in any district

These are the 21 districts the log is kept against. A district with nothing listed isn’t a district that kept its power — it’s a district we recorded nothing about.

No entries yet

Each entry will carry the district, whether it was power or water, when it started, when it came back, and how we came to know about it.

Island board carries what GEBE and the weather service have published today, which is a different thing from this record.

How an entry gets here

Four ways, and they differ

GEBE announcement

GEBE said it publicly — a notice on its Facebook page, or a statement carried by the press.

Our reporting

We confirmed it ourselves before logging it, usually with GEBE directly.

Reader reports

Readers told us. The entry stays labelled a reader report — it is not GEBE saying so.

Reported by another outlet

Another outlet reported it and we have not confirmed it independently. The entry names them.

Whichever it was is printed on the entry. An entry stays open until we record the supply coming back; past 24 hours we mark it as one we may simply not have closed.

Report an outage

This is how the log fills up

Tell us the district, whether it was power or water, and roughly when it started and came back. That is the whole record — and it is the part GEBE’s Facebook page doesn’t keep.

We check what we can before logging it, and the entry says it came from a reader.

Elsewhere on the site

Red — needs attention

Red appears on this board in one situation: an entry has been open long enough that it may simply be one we never closed, and you should not read it as a live outage. It is never our verdict on the grid.
