I have a colleague in San Rafael (Marin County). Yesterday Friday at 6:45 pm they had an unannounced blackout for about 2-3 hours. Here in the East Bay it has been hot (Lafayette 105, Concord 110° today). Storm Watch went live at 11:30 am as the State announced a Fire Alert (high temps, risk of lightning). It is hazy and partially cloudy so less than optimal solar PV performance. No outage here yet, but stay tuned. We have 2 PWs and 16kW of solar on our home. But due to our electrical system layout (kind of odd, several sub panels), our 2 5 ton AC compressors are not backed up, so when we lose power, it's gonna be unpleasant.
And EV-A is just a memory--we are on EV2-A and get punished from 4-9 pm.
