Lathrop Irrigation District, PG&E speak on power outage over hot weekend
LATHROP -- Rising temperatures mean more air conditioning. For hundreds of residents in Lathrop's River Islands, they had to sweat it out over this weekend's high heat. "Everyone was able to freeze their water, or go out to the pool, or make other arrangements -- so it's pretty good," Donna Cunningham said. "It always seems to happen on the hottest day of the year though," Frank Cunningham added. For about nine hours on Saturday, residents didn't have power. According to Lathrop Irrigation District (LID), this was a test of their switch at their substation that powers the relatively new development of River Islands. The test is federally mandated and happens once every five to six years. Its purpose is essential. "It keeps all our stuff safe in our switch yards," LID General Manager Erik Jones explained. "That way our power isn't interrupted if there are surge fires, whatever kind of keeps it, you know, safe for us. They have to test those. Usually it's every five, six years, but it's a federally mandated test." According to LID, Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) reached out to them earlier this year, saying they needed time to test the switch. With Lathrop only having one switch, they didn't have a choice but to shut off power for hours. That outage was scheduled months in advance, and it just so happened to land on a weekend with scorching temperatures. "It was either a Thursday or Memorial Day. Obviously, because of Memorial Day, the weather was a lot nicer, but there's a lot that's a big holiday and it would have been probably a lot worse if we chose that day," Jones said. CBS Sacramento reached out to PG&E about the timing of the outage. They sent a statement reading: "Our preference was to conduct this work in the evening when it is cooler in order to have the least amount of impact on our customers." Why wasn't the outage delayed? LID said that by the time it got PG&E's request, they had already sent out their 30-day notice to residents and didn't want to postpone the test later into the hot summer months. "We have to notify within 30 days of any interruptions, if we can," Jones explained. "We tried to give the best warning we could. When they scheduled the day of May 31, who knew it was gonna be 105 that day? It's just the way Mother Nature works this time." LID was able to turn the power back on before the original outage timeline. As of right now, there are no other outages planned.

Weather Service rehiring at offices left ‘critically understaffed' by layoffs
The National Weather Service (NWS) is seeking to hire 126 people, including at least some meteorologists, after massive layoffs at the agency left several offices understaffed. Tom Fahy, legislative director at a union that represents NWS employees, told The Hill that the weather service would conduct the hiring. Positions that would be open include meteorologists, hydrologists, physical scientists and electronics technicians. Fahy, with the National Weather Service Employees Organization, said that the physical scientists category includes some meteorologists, while the electronics technicians maintain equipment like radars. The move to hire more staff was first reported by CNN. A spokesperson for the National Weather Service confirmed via email that the agency was taking some steps to fill vacancies at the agency. 'NOAA leadership is taking steps to address those who took a voluntary early retirement option. NWS continues to conduct short-term Temporary Duty assignments (TDYs), and is in the process of conducting a series of Reassignment Opportunity Notices (RONs) to fill roles at NWS field locations with the greatest operational need,' said spokesperson Erica Grow Cei. 'Additionally, a targeted number of permanent, mission-critical field positions will soon be advertised under an exception to the Department-wide hiring freeze to further stabilize frontline operations,' she added. The move comes after the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency (NOAA) fired hundreds of workers, including some at the weather service, as part of an effort to shrink the size of the government. It also comes after an internal document stated that the department was seeking to reassign staffers to fill vacancies in 'critically understaffed' offices and was leaked last month. The document said that the weather service was looking to fill positions including meteorologists in disaster-prone areas such as Houston and Miami. It also comes alongside the arrival of hurricane season, which began Sunday. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Will Middle Tennessee experience a ‘heat wave' this week?
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — For the first time since last fall, Middle Tennessee will see three consecutive days in the 90s. Does this count as a heat wave, or is this normal for this time of year? According to the National Weather Service office in New York City, a heat wave is defined as three consecutive days of 90° or higher. The News 2 Weather Authority team is forecasting temperatures of 90° or higher from Tuesday, June 3, through Thursday, June 5. This would meet the National Weather Service New York City's office definition for a heat wave. New York is not Tennessee, so is the definition of a heat wave different here in the Volunteer State? According to Nashville National Weather Service meteorologist Ryan Husted, a heat wave is a prolonged period of abnormally hot weather. This means the criteria for a heat wave in New York City would not work here in Middle Tennessee. This is because temperatures in the 90s are not abnormal. FORECAST: Middle Tennessee & Southern Kentucky Weather The average high temperatures in Nashville are 90° or higher from June 25 through August 26. This is more than two months where 90° is normal. Husted said in Middle Tennessee, abnormally hot conditions are when the heat index gets above 105°. 'For us, 90s in June is not abnormally hot. Now, if we have those temperatures approaching 100°, and if we have that humidity, those dew points of 75° or 80° with a temperature of 95°, making it uncomfortable, that's what we would constitute a heat wave,' Husted told News 2. The heat index, or feels-like temperature, is how hot it feels to a human. It takes into account the moisture in the air along with the temperature. This is because it feels much hotter when there is more moisture in the air. Below is a heat index chart that has the temperature on the y-axis and dew point on the x-axis. The National Weather Service office in Nashville will issue heat advisories when the heat index is higher than 105° and extreme heat warnings when it gets above 110°. The criteria for heat alerts across the United States are based on feels-like temperatures that are abnormally or dangerously hot. This means a heat wave in Middle Tennessee would be at least three days when the heat index is 105° or warmer. ⏩ Husted said this warm-up is not abnormal enough to be a heat wave, but it could be a shock to your system since it's been so cool lately. 'By the technical definition, we currently don't meet the criteria for this upcoming event, but that's not to diminish the potential impacts. It's our first heat event of the year, we're not used to it at this point,' Said Husted.
