When Thunderstorms Strike, Power Goes Out! Nearly 3,000 people in Brod-Posavina County were left without electricity due to faults in power lines and substations. Heavy rain and strong winds wreaked havoc, and crews from Elektro Slavonski Brod worked through the night to fix the damage. Although power restoration was expected by morning, one has to ask – where did our electric grid disappear to when it was needed the most?
The storm that hit Brod-Posavina County didn’t just cause faults; it exposed our vulnerability. In municipalities like Podcrkavlje, Sibinj, Gornji Andrijevci, Slobodnica, Gromacnik, and Bukovlje Garcin, power outages left people in darkness and cold.
Is this just another sign that our infrastructure is outdated and poorly maintained? While crews battle the faults, residents wonder how many more such situations they will have to endure.
Emergency services responded immediately, but the question remains – is this due to climate change or irresponsible grid management? And while many users suffer from outages, authorities promise quick normalization, but is that enough?
If you’re tired of losing power every time a heavy rain hits, you’re not alone. Share your stories about surviving without electricity and whether you think it’s time for serious changes in the power system!
After all, who still likes playing with lights and darkness in the 21st century?
