While rotating power outages were averted on Monday, by Tuesday
afternoon the California Independent System Operator, which manages
the state's power grid, had again declared a "Stage 2" emergency
and said outages were "imminent." California ISO later canceled
that emergency and praised consumers for conserving energy that
helped avoid another outage. The continuing heat wave sparked two
nights of rolling blackouts over the weekend, which Gov. Newsom
called "unacceptable and unbefitting of the nation’s largest and
most innovative state." Newsom called for an investigation into why
California ISO imposed the outages. We'll get the latest news on
what’s happening with the state’s energy supply. And we want to
hear from you: have you been impacted by the power outages?
