Utilities Impose Rolling Blackouts As US Power Grid In Emergency Amid Cold Blast
Utilities have issued rolling power blackouts across North Carolina and Tennessee this morning.
News just hit Bloomberg that Tennessee Titans delayed the home game against Houston Texans over power concerns.
Extreme cold temperatures are pressuring power grids in the eastern half of the US. Rolling blackouts have affected many Americans, some of which have taken to Twitter to complain:
Memphis is under a mandatory rolling blackout and boil water advisory. Meanwhile, TVA is allowing the NFL to fully power Nissan Stadium in Nashville. Story below. #poweroutage #Titans #TVA #MLGW #Memphis

More than a million Americans are without power.
PJM Interconnection’s power generation mix this morning is primarily coal, natural gas, nuclear, and crude oil. So much for unreliable renewables helping out when the regional grid that supplies power to 65 million Americans in 13 states and the District of Columbia is in an emergency.
It’s time for Americans to realize renewables are unreliable — also, decommissioning fossil fuel power generation in the name of ‘climate change’ is idiotic at this point.
Let’s begin with PJM Interconnection, a regional power grid that stretches from Illinois to New Jersey, which declared a Stage 2 emergency late Friday and asked customers to conserve electricity due to the rising risk of grid instability.
“PJM is asking consumers to reduce their use of electricity, if health permits, between the hours of 4 a.m. on December 24, 2022, and 10 a.m. on December 25, 2022,” PJM wrote in a press release.
With power grids in an emergency across the eastern half of the US, there are also a million customers without power — most outages are in North Carolina, Tennessee, and Maine.
According to the map at link, 10,000 Texans have no power.
Ha! Good ones! I enjoyed the movie.
Western Pa..... right between Erie and Pittsburgh.
Those are great ones, norsky. Thanks for posting.
Recovering from a week of a houseful of company...and, now, getting ready to host Christmas dinner, tomorrow.

Until then....His love and Peace, to all of my TFT, and, ....

Well, I guess the AZ judge didn’t really need 5 days to look at the affadavits. The Times gleefully condescendsin its article about the ruling.
Kari Lake will appeal.
____________________________________________________________
“A state judge on Saturday rejected Kari Lake’s last-ditch effort to overturn her defeat in the Arizona governor’s race, dismissing for lack of evidence her last two claims of misconduct by Maricopa County election officials.
The order by Superior Court Judge Peter Thompson, after a two-day trial in Phoenix that ended Thursday, follows more than six weeks of claims by Ms. Lake, a Republican, that she was robbed of victory last month — assertions that echoed the false contention that was at the heart of her campaign: that an even larger theft had stolen the 2020 presidential election from Donald. J. Trump.”

If election fraud is allowed to occur and no law enforcement or court will step in to stop it, then what recourse do people have?!
This is unsustainable
They literally shut down the machines on election day!!

Spent a wonderful last hour and a half laying on my couch with my blankie and dog watching Silent Night. TY for the suggestion.
Oh, I hear it’s cold up there! Hopefully your son can travel to visit you soon!
This is very interesting read about Christmas in Venezuela. Makes me grateful i live here, and never socialism!

Oh, the answer to that one. That’s going to take awhile, probably longer than we will be on this mortal coil.
You live in a Government Class Oligarchy with strong fascist tendencies. You and I are not sovereign…they are. It is a government of, by and for the government.
The saddest thing is that ours is the generation that finally ended what the brilliant founders began.

I guess HONEST elections don’t matter, anymore, in this country. It’s whoever the DS/Uniparty want to “win”.
We are officially toast, but, for the Grace of God. Heaven help us.
Also disgusting to see FReepers shouting out with glee, over this ruling, and, any rulings/news against Pres Trump.
I’m with you, Gran.
This is so disappointing.
I can’t believe FReepers think this is good news.
.............
well, they are probably fake FReepers. Deep state has a lot of folks employed in that venue.
I read that....so nothings changed there except we have a 1/5th of their population now in the US. ...just another population group I will continue to ignore and avoid.
Biden doesn’t want Cubans and Venezuelans here because they hate socialism, most of them anyway.
