San Francisco, August 17 (RHC)-- In California, around two million residents had their power shut off in the state’s first rolling blackouts since 2001. An unrelenting heat wave has engulfed the region and is expected to last halfway through this week, as the coronavirus outbreak introduces yet new challenges for Californians seeking to escape the heat in cooling centers or other public places.
Meanwhile, in Iowa, hundreds of thousands remain without electricity after a deadly inland hurricane ravaged the state on Monday, leveling homes and devastating millions of acres of farmland.
