TO PICK UP ON WEDNESDAY.
HOT IS THE WORD OF THE
WEEKEND.
NO SHUT OFFS TONIGHT.
BUT CAL ISO WARNED THE STATE'S
POWER GRID WAS REACHING TOWARD
THE MAX TODAY, AND POWER
COMPANIES MAY HAVE TO CUT
DAYS, HEATHERRIAN SEN TRACKING
THAT FOR US TODAY.
OUR STATE PRODUCES MORE THAN
MOST COUNTRIES DO.
WHY WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS
AND WE'RE NOT A THIRD WORLD
COUNTRY IS BEYOND ME.
TICKED AT THE THREAT OF A
ROUND OF OTHER ROLLING
BLACKOUTS.
STATE GOVERNMENT REALLY
DROPPED THE BALL.
IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S A PERPETUAL
SITUATIIN THAT WE AS A STATE
CAN'T SOLVE.
CAL ISO SAYS TRIPLE DIGITS,
HIGH LOADS, AND FIRES CAUSING
THE STATE TO LOSE THOUSANDS OF
MEGA WATTS SATURDAY NIGHT.
PUTTING PRESSURE ON THE GRID.
AND READY FOR ROTATING OUTAGES
IF NECESSARY.
THE GOVERNOR DESIGNED TO FREE
UP MORE POWER.
BECAUSE WE'RE OLD.
YOU GET HEAT ILLNESS YOU DIE.
THIS HEAT WAVE A CONCEEN FOR
FAMILIES WILL HAVE A DISABLED
DAUGHTER WHO NEEDS POWER TO
SURVIVE.
FOR THAT REASON, THEY'RE
PREPARED WITH A GENERATOR IN
CASE OF EMERGENCY.
THEY PULL THE POWER, WE'RE
OKAY.
TEACHING PREPAREDNESS,
SAYING HE DOESN'T EXPECT THE
BLACK OUT THREATS TO GO AWAY
ANY TIME SOON.
THE GRID CAN ONLY TAKE SO
MUCH.
THE NEIGHBORS CAN'T GIVE US
ELECTRICITY, IT'S GOING TO
HAPPEN, IF YOU DON'T PREPARE,
YOU'LL HAVE PROBLEMS.
GOOD TO BE PREPARED,
HEATHER, THANK YOU, THE FLEX
ALERT IS STILL ACTIVE UNTIL
MONDAY NIGHT.
