Picked up without question

I notice that the City's press release on the power outage is accepted without further query. This outage extended well beyond the reported boundaries of 35, Burleson, Oltorf, and Ben White. Is there no reporting out there? We've noticed that, for the past week or so, when the stupid police helicopter or some other noise breaks into sleep, it's at times very apparent that the fans are turning more slowly (and the noise changes, too, when the blades slow), evidence of brownouts under cover of darkness. We haven't observed any daytime evidence this year.
