Metaverse Weather?

Yeah, Second Life is down again for lack of electricity. Forbes reports on it, and it seems the SecondLife grid isn't the only thing affected:

...Six Apart Inc., a blog-hosting service, said its sites began failing shortly before 2 p.m., and the company sent an e-mail to customers blaming the city's "power issues." The company reported that power resumed shortly afterward, but that employees were checking data and computers.

Several other Internet sites with offices in San Francisco had problems Tuesday afternoon, including Technorati, Yelp, Red Envelope and CNet. It was unclear whether the problems were related to the outage....

Would someone mind putting San Francisco's electrical status on a website, so we can check this aspect of the metaverse weather?

Honestly, while people are talking about distance flattening technologies... ain't it a little strange that it still boils down to geography?
