LOS ANGELES (CNS) - With above-normal temperatures in the forecast, particularly in Northern California, the manager of the state's power grid issued a Flex Alert that will take effect tomorrow afternoon, calling for voluntary electricity conservation.
According to the California Independent System Operator, the Flex Alert will be in effect from 4 to 9 p.m. Wednesday “due to predicted high energy demand and tight supplies across the West.''
Cal-ISO specifically cited high temperatures in the forecast in interior sections of Northern California.
According to the National Weather Service, Southern California will also see higher-than-usual temperatures through the week.
