    According to the 'istheservicedown" site, Centurylink is having
    problems in Foley, Alabama.

    I called the city hall in Foley, and spoke to
    Ms. Brenda Shambo, an Administrative Assistant.

    Ms. Shambo told me that there'd been a lightning storm, and confirmed
    that they had been affected:

    "They knocked us out for about twenty minutes, and then it came back
    up, probably on backup generator"

    I asked Ms. Shambo if the 911 PSAP had been affected, and she told me it had not.
