We did have a ~2hr "blackout" one evening a year or so ago here in Amelia and surrounding areas but other than that nothing. I remember driving down Morse in 100% darkness around 10PM which is why I remember it. There wasn't even a flicker during IRMA down here while the 441 area really got hit bad. That was terrible for residents there.

I think the historic side is bit more prone to random outages due to an older infrastructure and more above ground poles on the outskirts.
