There's nothing wrong with your eyes. I can't see it either.

 

[wingnut771]

I wonder if they're going to burn diesel to make this happen?

There is some data in the CSV file at least, but still 0 OCGT for the past few days

Okay glad to know

Agreed... don't trust this...

Very convenient timing - march on monday coupled with all the data coming out say ANC is bleeding votes...

Suddenly... load shedding is going to evaporate just in the nick of time....

Until after elections next year

Been saying it for a while. That's what these lower stages are about.

They've made it suck so hard that now everyone thinks that stage 2 is not so bad. So they can run stage 2 continuously even if demand is met and nobody will be upset.

It will allow them to build reserves for next year, when load shedding is suddenly "fixed". Then it all goes to hell again when the fsckers buy themselves another 5 years...

Okay looks like we would only really need shedding at night, but if they burnt a little diesel from 5 till 9 we'd be fine

I'm adopting the "work smart, not hard" strategy.

The only positive is that we do not have blizzard winter conditions.

However, what with the weather being upside-down the couple months past, and conspiracy theorists whispers of HAARP, I will not be surprised if we experience a surprise blizzard.

Expect normal stage 2 LS, then when a cold front hits, then be ready for a good few extra stages.
