Actually in CA, it is fairly common.
They are called “rolling blackouts”
The secret CA doesn’t want the rest of the country to know is CA doesn’t have the capacity to power itself.
The only way to manage it is to power down areas of high demand.
About once every couple of months, the power goes dead during the daytime in random locations.
Crazy. And I guess the EPA won’t let CA build new power plants?
Well...they all voted for 3rd world ideas...now they’re living their dreams!
