Trees. Our last outage was the ice storm of 2011. It's been fine since then when they upgraded the grid. We are near a main road and we have underground wiring. That's a good combination for avoiding power outages.

Yeah, that ice storm pissed off enough people to light up their representatives and utilities to actually do a lot of tree trimming. I'm guessing it's been long enough since then that they've slacked off again.
