Power outage situational awareness beyond a single utility map
Outages can be local, regional, short-lived, or a sign of wider stress from weather, heat, wildfire, equipment failure, or fuel constraints.
Utility outage maps are important, but they do not always show the surrounding conditions that matter for preparation: storm alerts, grid stress, cell and internet disruption, road conditions, or fuel availability.
