A major blackout/Apagon paralyzed Spain today at 12.35 Spanish time- for the last seven hours- . No full recovery on sight .. No trains, subways, traffic lights not working, no cell service and Internet communications, no ATM or CC transactions. Chaos on suways, freeways , schools and hospitals. May take a few days to restore services. People buying candles and portable radios. No supermarkets. No data on how military and defense systems were affected.

No hypothesis being discarded. Maybe it's a technical failure , Interesting to witness what a cyberattack could produce.

A national emergency has been declared a few minutes ago. For 4 Comunidades Autonomas.
 
The entire railroad grid has no power. Long distance speed trains are detained in the in the middle of the countryside . Hundreds of passengers stranded for more than 12 hours..!

People caught on trains with windows that don't open and no AC. Even worse on the subway. Imagine elevators stopped. What a nightmare
