Abstract
Many weather disasters can adversely impact the power system: thunderstorms initiating a blackout of New York City on 13 July 1977, an ice storm severely damaging the transmission system in southern Quebec in 1998, and countless hurricanes and tornadoes that have knocked out service to customers for weeks at a time. The reverse can also happen: the power system is capable of creating a weather disaster. This happened in southeastern Missouri in the early morning of 14 December 2005, when so much water was pumped into the upper reservoir of the Taum Sauk pump storage plant that it overflowed, resulting in a devastating flood that destroyed a house, stranded three motorists, and did significant damage in and around a state park. Luckily, no one was killed, and most of the water ended up in the plant's lower reservoir, which was largely able to contain the flow and prevent further damage downstream.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
