Triple-digit temperatures are forecast to return Thursday to scorch much of the Bay Area as the worst of a relentless heat wave is expected to finally come to a close.
Until then, Californians will continue to be asked to do their part to avoid rolling blackouts, which are initiated to avoid overloading the power grid during a heat wave as people crank their air conditioning and while appliances use more energy to stay cool.
A miscommunication on Tuesday left customers in several Bay Area cities without power, even before blackouts were officially called. Ahead of Thursday’s blistering temperatures, the National Weather Service issued heat alerts for most of the Bay Area, reminding residents to stay out of the sun, keep hydrated and check on vulnerable neighbors and relatives.
