Power outage not Blaster

Have you heard? If you are in Toronto(except for Matt who is on generator), Ottawa, New York, Cleveland, or Detroit, as well as any of the other smaller cities that are highly affected, you might not read this for a few hours. Everyone else though, can pop open their browsers and read this at will. Welcome. Anyways, while I am at work, and reading this to a friend so they can post this to the site, I have heard in the last few hours many things. We heard at work about an hour after the outage began that it was not terrorism related and that they didn't know what the cause was. I am not surprised to hear that since then they have had to come out publicly and say that it was also not caused by the Blaster worm. Good to know. Now, what was it?[Update: News here and here]
