Nah, mosquito had me awake every few minutes. Didn't feel like the fan or Dooming, it stinks.

Yup, plus the fact demand was actually way under availability, but they still shed at stage 2.

Lets see if it updates again any time during the day, as so far stage is only really needed at night and only for a short period.

Haha, well last week was a very bad and unwelcome surprise, with S3/S4 (I don't think it actually got to S4) coming seemingly out of no-where.

coming seemingly out of no-where.

Whole problem seems to be that there's no accountability, so no way for those with good intent to keep their ship stable :- (

If / when it's treated as a treasonous act to sabotage, then maybe...

It never did get to stage 4 and actually dropped to 2 on Sunday. So yeah can't really predict any more

 

[Lupus]

Drop again

 

[Brian_G]

No announcement in reasonable time again

 

[Lupus]

Esp predicting stage 3 from 4pm, looking at those numbers it may be

 

[Lupus]

Well they were right

So basically nothing has actually really changed in the last 2 years, except Kusile is back online + unit 5. So the frequent breakdowns of the usual suspects only drop us into stage 4 instead of 6.

Oh, that again? See a couple of tweets and all of a sudden the whole of Joburg doesn't have power?

Mine just came back from the 16h00 loadshedding.
