Wow, that is intense! I have seen one of the US all lit up, it is very interesting to see one with a good portion of the east blacked out.

No, you can see it is different from the one I have if you look closely enough, there are brighter lights along the coast of Florida, and more lights in Southern California...it is a different photo. These are taken by the LANDSAT satellite.

Yup, it was a HUGE blackout! Northern NJ, NY state, Connecticut, Western PA, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Ontario...for starters.
