I run power-outage.org, a free website for finding U.S. power outage information by location and utility. I'm looking for feedback on whether people can quickly find their area and understand the difference between current observations and unavailable data.
The site has partial coverage โ it doesn't show every utility or every outage, and its coverage page explains exactly what's included and what's missing. What's there now: a national county map, per-state and per-county pages, a ~2,900-entry utility directory linking to each utility's official outage/reporting page, and live feeds from sources like DOE/ORNL ODIN, California OES, and the National Weather Service.
If this fits the section rules: https://www.power-outage.org/
One specific question: on your phone, when you open your state or county, is it clear what's currently observed versus where data is unavailable โ and can you easily find the utility's own outage page?
