Ugh excuse me while I vent...
So it's Harvestfest, and right in the middle of cooking the turkey the stupid power goes off for the NAPS vote. Thanks for ruining our Harvestfest! But wait, I thought, I will just order delivery! Oka...

About the cell phone not working right away, in real life if power was deliberately shut off as per government order, it's possible they would also shut off power to the cell-phone towers and not allow the backup systems to kick in (To save energy as per the NAP). You could still turn on your phone until it's battery goes dead, but there would be no connection for communication or internet.
It is funny though (and dumb) that you can just step off the lot in game and it works. What do they do? Transmit interference EMP's to every house (Lot)? lol
