Giant Dust Storm causes Two Power Glitches
Two power glitches (~4:00pm local) from a giant Dust Storm that just hit us. Front ends died after the first glitch. Winds are gusting up to 70+ MPH. We're going to wait until the storm passes before beginning to restore everything.

Pictures are just before the storm hit.
