Or terrorism, whatever way your mileage varies.



First noticed on the socials this morning that there were power outages in that area from folks I know in Carthage, and one of the weather and other Central NC alerts outlets. Saw something about substations would have to be repaired. Didn’t think much of it.

Then I started noticing posts like this.

x For those wondering how serious the terrorist attack in Moore County, NC is: when we left Southern Pines there was no working cell towers or internet, even for our phones. It took driving to the neighboring county to find out what was going on. Good luck calling 911. #MooreCounty — Sgt Joker (@TheSGTJoker) December 4, 2022

x Tonight, there are unconfirmed reports coming out of Moore County, NC of three substations being shot up with firearms simultaneously to cut power to a drag show. Reportedly, nearly 40,000 people in Moore County are currently without power. — [email protected] (@cmclymer) December 4, 2022

OK, that doesn’t sound like it was just weather or some grid issue that overloaded some substations.

What the official news sources are saying.
