"Californians, you’ve stepped up in a big way to keep the lights on so far. But we’re heading into the worst part of this heat wave. And the risk for outages is real and it’s immediate," Newsom said in a video posted to social media.We are now heading into the worst part of it - the risk of outages is real. Your efforts have paid off so far, but we need everyone to double down to save energy after 4pm.
