If you live on the East Coast start charging your backup batteries and have the generators ready. This is NOT good! Places like NYC, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chicago, Boston and similar could see POWER LOSS today because the Grid will be stretched to it's limit.
Most of all KEEP IN MIND that the Pavement Apes thrive and become VIOLENT in extreme heat as is the nature of their genetic make-up. Should the power go out you can BE SURE they will get it thru their 84-Point IQ minds to go and loot the stores as there will be NO POWER to operate security systems and similar. Places like the Liquor Store will be VERY HIGH on their list of places to go trash and loot, as will be street corners as they assault stuck traffic and similar. If you are on the East Coast you need to LOAD FOR BEAR today an be on guard. Keep safe and be vigilant. we may get a 'small taste' of what it's like in South Africa today in some cities if the power goes off and the Apes start to pour out into the street in 110F heat.

How conveeeenient. And reasonable. It's hot as fuck and a (ten) million muricans cranking up the AC on a friday evening is... Well, that's 'murica: prioritizing personal comfort above pretty much anything else.
If the convenience-fueled brownouts provide cover for MILOPs, so much the better. "Never let a crisis go to waste" (- rahm emmanuel, paraphrased) and soforth.
Hot days like today account for 1% of the run hours but 20% of the capacity requirements. In places like NYC, it makes the grid utilization efficiency very low, like 60% instead of 90%

You got the idea. To a tee. I strongly suggest loading up the Mossberg or Glock should the SNB's decide to take advantage of the opportunity later today to go out and 'chimp' in large numbers.
I just got a NEW transformer on my power pole (15th) AND yesterday got a whole new electrical service wire from street to house because air conditioner guy found a power imbalance (119 - 123 on each leg)....now (122 - 122) shorting AC fan and flickering lamps (on lowest setting) CURED! AC guy says it can damage your stuff. In fact Power company guy burned out my emergency generator switch (smoking) when he disconnected my power by taking the meter out of the meter box. Says it's not his responsibilty because he called his boss. Looks like once again, shitty workers gonna cost me MONEY.
Tangentially. Corruption in government leads to crumbling infrastructure and a population that can't be sustained. If our borders were closed and we only had Americans in America, and politicians that cared about keeping the country running, we'd be fine.

If the power goes out in Chicago, the nigger population will see a dramatic decline

I dont see a downside to this at all.

The nigger population will begin branching out to find what they can from the surrounding prepared suburbs.

I guess that's why they call it a brownout

How can we make sure the power goes out in Chicago?

We need to send $50,000,000,000 more to Israel and another $5,000,000,000,000 in free gibs for the poor unfortunate oppressed minorities.
