Saw a few people on another forum mention the grid thing but nobody had specifics. Which states are we talking about? That detail matters quite a bit because if they're clustered geographically it's a different conversation to if they're spread out.
I'll be honest I don't automatically jump to connected events but the timing is what gets me. Power grids don't just go down for no reason and then something shows up in restricted airspace the same week - that's a lot of coincidence to swallow.
Anyone got links to the original outage reports? Local news tends to cover these before the story gets buried. Worth archiving whatever you can find now before it disappears off search results, seen that happen too many times with this sort of thing.
