As yet another unfortunate turn of events, the temporary generator we were using to supply power to DC3 caught fire at approximately 03:00 EST this morning. As a result of the fire we were forced to EPO DC3 by order of the Mecklenburg County Fire Marshall.

Shortly after the fire began we requested a “replacement, replacement” generator from our vendor knowing the likely outcome of these events. Once the fire department had completely put out the fire it was determined that the generator was all but a complete loss and was of no further use to us.

Due to delays outside of our control it took roughly four more hours for the “replacement, replacement” generator to be on site and we had it connected and supplying power in just under 30 minutes.

At this time all service should be restored and we’re vigilantly monitoring the situation to ensure there are no further interruptions.

Considering the unbelievable nature of the past 24 hours, pictures of some of the events will be forth coming and we will be providing links to these photo sets within this RFO.


Note: this is a previous update, presumably related to the second outage... my server just disappeared again which makes it outage #3
