SoCal power outage

My wife is in SD right now visiting family and I just got a text from her that the power is out for alot of the city. Checking online it looks like it is huge.

When you restrict yourselves to producing a finite amount of electrical power, but at the same time, have a figuratively infinite demand for electrical power, someone is gonna lose.

Actual demand was pretty close to forecast demand, both well below available resources.
