That's the great thing about living in Misery.
We have Minnesota weather now and will have Texas weather in 5 months.
Bring it on bitches we can handle it.
It's the Natty Gas generators that are supposedly offline due to supply issues causing the issues.
Drove I-80 thru Iowa recently.
Every farm field has a bunch of wind turbines in it.
Those hillbillies (it's not as flat as you think there) have really bought into that shit.
That's not the excuse being used tho.
Natural Gas shortages shutting down generation is.

Yeah, spoopy af.
The suppliers/generators of Natty Gas are putting out the SOS.
A lot of places from Springfield, MO and points SW use a lot of it for electric generation.
But, the news and board keeps harping on the lack of wind generation being the reason.
The biggest benefit "green" solutions provide is during peak air conditioning season when the peak demand is always highest.
That's why I think wind is a waste of time since how many heat waves have high wind speeds.
The big solar farms out west have the right idea.
The one thing you'll have plenty of during 100+ degree weather is the sun.
