More than 13,000 people in Santa Clara County were in the dark Wednesday night.
In East San Jose, thousands of families were hit with another round of outages during peak hours forcing some to lay on the grass and others to take out their couches.
Delia Boyzo, who has a 4-day-old newborn, said she’s worried because the baby has been extremely fussy and can’t rest because of the heat. As if this situation wasn’t bad enough, several Bay Area cities had to endure a rolling blackout Tuesday night due to a miscommunication between the Northern California Power Agency and California ISO.“It wasn’t that inconvenient because it was short,” said Tatiana Van Houten from Palo Alto.
Thanks to Californian's conserving energy, California ISO said residents made it through Wednesday without rotating power outages.
