Drought is putting pressure on California’s already stressed-out grid. As water reservoirs run dry, there’s been a significant drop in hydroelectric generation. Without enough water pressure to quickly turn turbine blades, there could be electricity shortages right when residents need it the most.  Rolling blackouts have already become a new norm for the state as utilities shut down power lines in an attempt to avoid sparking fires during hot, dry weather. But summertime outages also occur when residents crank up their air conditioners to beat the heat and demand outpaces the available power supply.
That's exactly what the idiot voters in CA deserve!

I dropped anything about California off my radar screen long ago.
The politics suck.
The 9th circuit court sucks.
The voters suck (in the cities like just about every state).
The druggies suck.
The immigrants suck.
The schools suck.
The homos suck.
The movies suck.
The fake moral high ground sucks.

The weather is nice north of San Francisco, though.
Please seat yourself.

Almost everyone in California has water, almost everyone has electricity.
California is a far more pleasant place than, say Mississippi or West Virginia.

The State of California does not own the electric companies.
The Power companies whose poor maintenance caused the fires in a relatively few places were sued and ordered to repair the problems on the lines, but that takes time and they are obliged to shut off power in the relatively few places where fires might occur due to quipmn that still has not been replaced.

The State of California has no control over the amount of water that flows toward it from the Colorado River.

The government of California does not control the water or the electric grid.
It certainly has done a better job than the State of Mississippi has done in seeing that the people of Jackson have potable water.

LOL - They paid out all of their money to ***, homeless, dopers, and thug criminals.  No one with any money is left in the state to pay for their socialist programs.  Now, that's a beautiful thing!

so true. money talks. bullet train out bid water grids.  a updated water grid would have reduced the water bill of the people in california by over 30%. political animals are rats. parasites. never consider how to reduce the cost of living for the workers.

still say the US ought to hire lazy welfare recipients to build massive water pipelines to the Western States from the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers so when they are flooding that can pump water to the west.  It MIGHT help some poor flood prone town along the river and would certainly help the West.

lots of water in the west. lack of government development. snake river needs to have a massive dam built at twin falls idaho. creating a massive irrigation and recreation lake. allow china to manage the project.

When you complain, ur friends roll their eyes and ur enemies rejoice

"Because I SAY I am" is a todler's tantrum, not "science"

You cannot betray me - only yourself, to me.

Who cuts off your dick is not a friend

An opinion you won't defend is not your own

Humanity's Law of the Jungle: Survival NOT of the fittest, but of the tribe

When peeing in the pool, stand on the edge

If gender is not sex, why should a gender claim change what sex you shower with?

I lived in Bolivia and Colombia in the 1960s. Same ****.

Happily, they have improved a good bit.
