Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 48.9 minutes — the gap between that figure and the headline 158.0 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.
The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for City of Marquette - (MI), which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. SAIDI has increased from 79.8 to 158.0 minutes, which may reflect either worsening weather exposure or delayed grid modernization.
