wow literally can fry eggs on L.A.'s streets today. I'm wondering how their electricity situation is doing:

Looks like LA County just broke its all-time high temperature record today at nearly 121° in Woodland Hills (prev was 119° in July 2006) https://t.co/RYJPHe9ROa pic.twitter.com/bm9I9c1LPY

Incredibly, this slipped in "under the radar" due to the more acute short-term wildfire crisis: 2020 has now eclipsed 2018 for the most acres burned in California in a single year during modern era (2,094,955 acres), & "offshore wind" season has not even arrived yet.#CAwx #CAfire pic.twitter.com/cP6cUYGHBq
