Annual outage calendar FAQ

Does the annual outage risk calendar predict future outages?

No. It shows when recorded county-level outage starts have historically clustered. Weather and grid conditions can change, so it is a preparation tool rather than a forecast.

What does a darker date mean?

A darker date had more recorded outage starts in that county across the available historical record from 2014 through 2025.

Can I use a ZIP code?

Yes. Enter a five-digit ZIP code and we will select the county associated with it using the same county crosswalk used throughout the site.
