That sucks. I remember everyone pointing and laughing at California because the state was being defrauded by Enron, which caused regular brownouts.
I ain’t do that. If you are in Virginia (or anywhere else, but since this post is about Virginia) and need help cooling off, pour water on your forearm. I learned it as left forearm because it’s barely closer to your heart, but I haven’t noticed a difference. You’re getting better air cooling because of the water, and it’s on your forearm which gets a lot of bloodflow. Also you aren’t getting your clothes wet. Old farmer’s trick.
I lived through those brownouts but I was a teen and didn’t understand what was going on, just that it was annoying. We had just moved into a house in a very hot part of town where the wind goes to die and it suuuuucked.
