The FCC requested letters from cellular carriers about network prepardness 
to handle 24-48 hour power blackouts in California.  See ECFS Docket 
19-251, Promoting Network Reliability During Disasters. AT&T, Sprint, 
T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular and Verizon filed their responses this week.

I haven't seen the FCC PSHSB ask broadcasters or cable companies about 
their operational prepardness for 24-48 hour blackouts in California.
