Corrected entry: John, Diana and the kids show up in John's truck at Diana's mother's home. John and Diana stand in front of John's truck with the headlights on. Diana's mom's home has no power going to it, but it appears that a porch light is on above the door. It can not be from the truck's headlights because their shadow would be cast on the side of the house. So a house with no power has a porch light on.

Corrected entry: The son attempts to reach her father near the end via cell phone, but it doesn't work (it is not made clear whether the "no signal" is geographical or the result of solar activity as it is at other parts of the movie). Nonetheless, when he goes to a landline pay phone at the gas station and calls his father, he receives the call on his cell phone without any problem.
Correction: The solar activity is what was causing the interference to cell and cordless phones. As heard on John's cell phone call to his father earlier, the signal comes and goes depending on the flare activity.

Corrected entry: Screen shows Nicolas Cage at his computer typing in the Latitude and longitude coordinates for the next disaster. He types in Lat 40.71 Long 74.00. That location is on the Kyrgyzstan and China border. Correct Latitude is 40.7156 and Longitude -74.0031. Should have been a negative number for Longitude. (00:55:30)
Correction: Longitude can also be exressed as E or W, instead of + or -. Some GPS systems that I have used, only need numerical information entered, because they are programmed for regions where they are going to be used. In other words, since the unit is only used in North America, there is no need to designate a - or + when entering data, or E and W, as the program recognizes that all the data will be for the region programmed into it.

Correction: Or a house with a generator. Since they live in a rural area, it's not unusual for people to have an emergency power generator.

Then why did they walk around in the dark instead of turning the house lights on?
