After seven days, a heat dome draped over California was finally losing its grip Thursday, but not before delivering one more day of excessive triple digit temperatures away from the coast.
Livermore has been the poster child of the historic heat wave. Twice during the week-long onslaught temperatures have climbed to 116 -- the hottest ever recorded in the East Bay community.Napa -- 102 The scorching heat has overwhelmed electrical transformers, knocking out power to thousands. Among those left to sweat out the heat without power were Carly Mueller and her husband Justin.
"With your help, we made it through another day without rotating #poweroutages," Cal-ISO said on Twitter. The confusion occurred Tuesday afternoon between a dispatcher at the Northern California Power Agency, which owns and operates power generating facilities for 16 members including a dozen cities, and the California Independent System Operator as the grid it manages was perilously close to running out of energy amid record-breaking temperatures.
Forecasters said cooling coastal marine layer was seen offshore of Big Sur on Thursday and would move up the coast.
