My sister lives in San Diego and posted on FB that much of the SW US is out of power.
Have been snooping around for news for the last 10 minutes and ran across the following:
During a level 9 earthquake, it kind of makes sense to shut down the reactors, but during a power outage?
But then again, maybe they just disconnected from the grid, and "shutdown" is just news babble. (crossing fingers)
