What an EM pulse can do-
The American 'Starfish Prime' nuclear test in the south pacific in 1962, is seen here through cloud detonating 900m from Hawaii at 250 miles altitude-
WIKI- "The Starfish Prime electromagnetic pulse caused electrical damage in Hawaii 1,445 kilometres (898 mi) away from the detonation point, knocking out about 300 streetlights, setting off numerous burglar alarms and damaging a telephone company.
The EMP damage to the microwave link shut down telephone calls from Kauai to the other Hawaiian islands."
PS- It was claimed by the milirary that the power of the EMP was "accidental and under-estimated", but I wouldn't be surprised if they did it on purpose as an experiment to see what effects it'd have on Hawaii.
