  • Blackout of the Decade: the Great Northeast Blackout of 1965 Chloe
    Blackout of the Decade: The Great Northeast Blackout of 1965 Chloe Belant Junior Division Historical Paper Paper Length: 1544 Words The only thing you could see for miles was dark, not even a finger was visible. ​ —Stephanie Quaker, New York Times editor. ​ Although it was 55 years ago, The Northeast Blackout of 1965 is still remembered as, “The day of ​ darkness” (Wentwirth,2010). A day where the afternoon turned into night and many people were ​ left in darkness. In the year 1965, on the day of November 9th at around 5:27 p.m., an interference caused voltage through lines across New York and all through the Northeast side of the U.S. to have massive power deduction by almost 4 kilowatts which at the time caused a brown out. A kilowatt is a measurement of power. It has a measurement of 1,000 watts. After almost 4 minutes, “Of slow ​ water pressure and dimmed lights throughout the house, we knew something was up,” says Randy ​ Willmings, a resident of New York at the time. Soon after all lines lost voltage, the city of New York became dark. Many Americans were stuck in subways or train stations and many were gathered in telephone lines to call loved ones. The blackout lasted over 13 hours and covered nearly 800,000 long miles stretching from northeast side of Massachusetts up into Ontario Canada where the power failure originated from. Over 30 million people were affected and up to 1,000 fires went ablaze after power became overloaded at one transformer. “It was a day of definite fights with fire,” says Chief Macdonald of the ​ ​ Massachusetts volunteer fire dept.
