It's amazing that with all that flooding the electricity stays on.

In real life in a situation like that wouldn't they have turned the power off to prevent shorts and fires and to minimize damage to the electrical system?

Ugh.

Hollywood never so much interested in actual things, like reality. But this here work takes the Oscar for Most Stupid Rewrite of Physical Laws. Not just magical power plants, but exploding transformers that set nearby swimmers aflame. Without killing them.
