    power demands are increasing...approaching last year's figures and looks like they may not be able to meet the demand. A revised blackout schedule may be coming around noon JST.

    May be some trouble in the electronics sector if this drags out too much longer:
    Japan's earthquake has suspended 25 percent of the global production of silicon wafers, according to a new research report, perhaps impacting semiconductors.

    Banks are shutting down ATM's to try to conserve additional power...some may be back on after noon.

    Train schedules being shuffled as well to try to compensate for demand...but it may cause trouble with rush hour. It's going to be tight as businesses are trying to get started back up and more people trying to use transit services for the first time in a week.

    Municiple buildings being cleared to provide more shelter for evacuees. Room for 3-4000 more people expected to open today.
