Typically, the power goes out and when the problem is fixed it comes back on. If the fault was momentary, it comes back right away. In general no breakers in your house have tripped, however, there have been reports of breakers tripping around the same times of power outages.
Your AC is NOT on the type of breaker (AFCI or GFCI) that would typically trip during a power outage.
Now since you have asked this question, it appears that you will have your house closed up for an extended period. You should have a home watch service to keep an eye on your property. Do some research, and get a highly recommended company.
