Blocks 7 and 8 went out around 11 PM local (that's almost an hour ago now)
What I meant to say here (as several have pointed out) is that blocks 7
and 8 went out at 11 *AM*
I've been converting between Pacific time and Eastern time all day,
and keep getting the sign bit mixed up.
Meanwhile, more accurate (but not guaranteed to be correct) data:
Block 5 (the part that wasn't hit yesterday), Block 6, and Block 7
were scheduled out at 10 AM and scheduled back by 11:40 AM
Block 8 and Block 9 were scheduled out at 11 AM and scheduled back by
12:40 PM
Further outages were suspended at noon, until 5 PM, when it is expected
that, barring a miracle, the last of Block 9 and all of Block 10 will be
shut down.
