Power Outage/Water Main Break in Columbia Heights

Alert DC is reporting a power outage at 13th and Harvard Streets NW due to a water main break at 13th and Florida Avenue NW. The water main has apparently flooded electric feeders at the site. Pepco's outage map indicates fewer than 250 customers are affected. The Post says that 13th street is closed between Belmont and Florida.

Freaky. I'm on 13th between Harvard and Florida and I've got power, but no DSL.
