To my surprise if you look closley at the videos none of the HID street lamps dim or extinguish on the neighboring islands or upper manhattan during the 2 flash overs which leads me to think that the fault did not occur on the 345kv bushings but somewhere after a transformer. Either that the area is fed by a large and diverse number of transmission sources. Its something wonder about.
I noticed that too. I was expecting to see more darkness after the event but noticed little or no significant change to amount lighting in the picture after the arcing was done.
