Letter: Power out in Moss Beach yet again

Once again the power went out in Moss Beach last night. At least it did on my block on California Avenue on the west side.  It seems this happens every time there is significant wind or rain - maybe once or twice a month in the winter.

I can’t help but wonder why we lose power so often. I would like to know whether this is a local failure. Or is it that we are we on some part of the grid that is lower priority and a failure somewhere else results in our power being taken off the grid?  Does anyone know the cause of our frequent local power outages?
