LAX Airport is having widespread power outages, flights being rerouted...
I want to know, don’t airports have a back-up system for electrical power? Or is something else going on now? 😉😉😉

"The outage struck about 6:30 p.m. Wednesday and was caused by a power 'bump' at an off-airport Los Angeles Department of Water and Power substation, which caused a power disruption throughout the airport, according to airport officials. It caused 21 flight cancellations and at least seven diversions of flights, according to an airport official.
Power was restored within an hour to terminals 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 and the Tom Bradley International Terminal. Terminals 1, 7 and 8 remained with only emergency power."
