Wouldn't worry about Diablo Canyon, getting decommissioned by 2025. It's baseload probably replaced by a couple solar panels and natural gas plants.

They're kicking around the idea of filing for a license extension again, but I don't know how serious that is.

No emergency services at all right now so you have to hope some rando crazies from Texas or maybe an Italian navy officer find you.

FYI this is standard operating procedure for Fire/EMS when winds hit a certain sustained rate - usually over 39mph.

I thought the rain will linger after for a bit? I'm not a rainologist

I think because the flash flood warning said until 12am? which is arbitrary...

Seems bad in terms of pump capacity if the storm stays parked / slow moving

lol if the 1910 pumps are the only ones that work through the storm because they have to have their own bespoke generators
