Yeah, I noticed the lights flicker once here.

PC + routers on UPS = uninterrupted leeching internet access.

Sounds like it's coming from the Powerlink network & not just some localised Energex faults...

We just had an email here at work (ANZ Building city) saying that it was city wide. Email was from body corp.

Due to bush fires or something.

A number of buildings in the Brisbane CBD are currently experiencing power fluctuations. Energex have advised the problem is being experienced by Ergon, due to bush fires interferring with main power supply lines.

There we are.
