changes the complexion of things. to give you an idea of how the power gets knocked out, the trees, the debris, and tropical force winds hit transformers. i was 65 miles south in ft. pierce and we actually had a transformer go off while we were there. let's take a look at this. you can see the dark sky and then in a moment you'll see that's the transformer there blowing. it fills the sky there with that bright color, and then boom, most of the lights went out. some of the lights you see are still on in that area but boom, it is gone, and likely it could be days before electricity back in some cases. i'm in melbourne, and some folks have kindly not only given us shelter but allowing us to talk to them, they've stepped outside in the rain. mike mccain, sofia kim.
