Well, our office’s power has been unreliable despite the absence of any major storms or weather.  I came in today, I found several short power failures and one that lasted over an hour.  Some equipment had shut down, mission critical items were buffered against such an event.  Still, the lack of reliability is surprising given our location in Mechanicsville, VA.
