Heart Of Darkness of the Day: A Valentine’s Day balloon is being blamed for a power outage that left over 15,000 Southern California Edison customers in the dark.
According to Edison spokesman David Song, the metallic balloon hit a substation in Fontana, triggering the outage. It took a utility crew over an hour to restore power to the area.
Song said that while balloons are a frequent source of power line and transformer shortages, it is rare for one to knock out a substation.
Edison recommends balloon givers ensure their gifts are kept indoors or tied down. Or maybe just go with flowers next time.
