According to disclosure releases they were already at a low level alert due to nearby flooding, but no plant operations had been affected. I guess the "real" story is they had a small electrical fire in the coolant pump electrical room for the spent rod storage pool. They had a brief power outage to the coolant pumps, but the system was back online before backup power was even necessary.

I guess the temperature of the spent rod pool rose by 3 degrees C, nothing much for anyone to get all herpa-derpa about.
