Members phkrause Posted April 18, 2025 Members Posted April 18, 2025 Puerto Rico Puerto Rico is in the dark due to another island-wide blackout. The power outage occurred in the US territory on Wednesday afternoon as thousands of tourists packed into hotels to celebrate Easter vacation. It’s unclear what caused the blackout but officials said the electricity will not likely come back for another 48 to 72 hours. Residents are frustrated and angry because such outages have befallen Puerto Rico for years. The issue has only gotten worse since 2017 when Hurricane Maria pummeled the island and destroyed the power grid. Utility crews are still struggling to rebuild it.
