On the US east coast it does not. Very rare occurrence, to the point where a major blackout is a noteworthy event.

I live in the us east coast and we lose power every year just about. Last summer it was 3 days in a row during a heat wave. It’s not large blackouts that would make the news but rather local outages. They happen all the time.
