Had a storm roll though this morning and the power went off at about 5:30 AM. Was restored a bit after 11 AM. Very unusual. We usually get a short, couple minutes at the most, outage every couple months. Have a couple network nodes that use a Raspberry Pi so have possible SD card corruption issues if powered down without proper software shutdown. These are powered by a UPS. Have thought about detecting loss of AC power and sending a command over the network to shut down. Need to do a few other adjustments too like figuring out what really needs to be on the UPS to maximize run time.
