Do you expect trouble from this?
Not really. It can do weird things with cron job scheduling and the
like, but I think they're just warning you not to do this kind of thing
willy-nilly. But in your case, it sounds like a one-off due to the power
hit.
If you find that this happens again, then you may have a bad hardware
clock, failing CMOS battery, or some other hardware issue.
