And larger drop as they went into stage 2. It's going to go to stage 3 tomorrow if not today. What a great wave.
I'm sending this from across the country now, but I lost power in 2020 last time it was almost this hot in CA.
We'll see. The day-ahead estimates have been high all week, and the temperature is dropping tomorrow. I put it about a 50/50 chance that we break 50GW tomorrow.
Maybe in parts of the state, but all over northern CA there are places forecasting a few degrees warmer. Plus the overnight will be high enough that buildings won’t lose as much retained heat, and will start out slightly warmer.
The heat is widespread, and there isn't enough capacity.
