Generally speaking, the American lifestyle is largely dependent upon the power grid. And when the grid goes down during the hottest times of the year, our eyes are opened to the need to have essential off-grid preps on hand to survive.
A sweltering heat wave that has enveloped most parts of California causing a surge of demand on the power grid. During the hottest part of the day on Friday, energy companies made the decision to start rolling blackouts – something that has not been done for 20 years.
The heat wave is ramping up this weekend, and some areas could reach triple-digit record highs, weather.com meteorologist Jonathan Belles said, adding that the temperatures are more typical of mid-summer than August.
An excessive heat warning was issued by the National Weather Service for Friday through Tuesday, and the combination of heat and wildfires prompted air quality warnings as well.
Ozone pollution in some areas reached levels Friday afternoon not seen in 10 years, the Los Angeles Times reported.
Gonzales said several different factors would play into whether the rolling blackouts continue.
“We’re dealing with weather, clouds, wildfires … these are quickly evolving situations, quickly changing,” she told the AP.
The situation will be evaluated on a day to day basis, she said.
Many believed rolling blackouts were a thing of the past, but all that changed Friday when the lights went out on 350,000 thousand homes. Many were caught off guard and felt PG&E had not fully communicated the likelihood of this occurring. But the worst is yet to come as more rolling blackouts are planned for the coming week. Excessive heat warnings are forecasted through Wednesday for Central Valley, Delta, foothills, and mountains southwestern of Shasta County to western Colusa County.
With scorching temperatures forecasted in many parts of the country, it is important to know that certain preparedness items can provide safety and protection when you are off the grid during the hottest part of the year.
If you have not done so already, take inventory of your light preparedness supplies, checking to see if batteries work and that you have extra supplies of batteries in case the blackout lasts longer than intended. Last year, I went through a similar circumstance and highlighted the preparedness items used and even the mistakes I made in my preparedness plans that needed to be improved on. Here is a list of the 10 essential blackout-proof supplies I used to get through my off-grid emergencies.
Other alternative light considerations could be solar garden lights which can be charged outdoors and then brought in the evening to use. Oil lamps are another lighting alternative and an added benefit to this is you can recycle used cooking oil or use rendered fat to power these. Also consider having a supply of long-burning candles, and solar-powered flashlights.
I hope this helps some of you better prepare for off-grid events. Please check out The Prepper’s Blueprint and 52-Weeks to Preparedness for more information on preparing.

Or you can move to a less primitive, backward state
As a Californian, if the mismanagement of forests (see state government, yes you Newsom), DEW/HAARP (Directed Energy Weapons and GeoEngineering), and Soros’ Antifa black shirts setting fires (see SteveQuayle report) were not enough to cause a revolution to change the guards of our liberties (see Declaration of Indeoence), THEN I guess every man here in Calif. will have to wait til we see the whites in their eyes to take care of business… OR F’IT and go Recon Snip on their traitorous arses. Fate will decide.
Move or be a tax cow.
