Blizzards in New York force nuclear shut down
Snow blizzards in new York forced the closure of a nuclear power station in Massachusettss when it lost electrical power. Safety was maintained by back up generators!
The Pilgrim Power Plant doesn't seem to have any information on its own web site.
The Jacksonville Observer reports that calls to shut down the power station in the lead up to the storm seem to have been ignored, despite the event being estimated to take place at high tide.
The area is currently being hit by high numbers of local power outages as a result of the massive storm.
