Default Huge blackouts in the US
Eeek! Right now all the electricity is out in NYC and here in northern NJ. It's also out in Toronto, Detroit, Cleveland and other major cities in the northeast. Apparently things are pretty chaotic, especially in New York. The subways and trains aren't running, traffic lights aren't working and cell phones aren't working either.

many people are trapped in subways. It has affected many cities now over the USA. Experts ay it is not thought to be an act of terrorism.

an act of terrorism???

maybe it has something to do with that huge computer virus thingy, though? Apparently governmental databases have been destroyed, so that might be the cause of all this?

All the airports have shut down too. Buildings are being evacuated and they're working to get people out of the subways. And it's about 100 degrees and there is no air conditioning.
