Residents of Dazhou, Sichuan gather on the bridge to enjoy the cool at midnight. What is the reason for this phenomenon?

Residents in Dazhou, Sichuan Province lined up on the bridge to enjoy the cool, which was caused by power failure in hot weather.

The continuous high temperature in Sichuan and Chongqing has been more than half a month, and the rainfall is still very small. Because of the terrain and weather system factors in Sichuan and Chongqing, it is hotter than other provinces, and it is even hotter this year. Therefore, many areas use more electricity, use less water and generate less electricity, and many areas are overloaded with electricity. In this regard, in order to reduce electricity consumption, many areas have begun to limit electricity. In this case, residents in Dazhou, Sichuan will stay up in the middle of the night and go out to enjoy the cool.

What's going on here?

On August 18, netizens in Dazhou, Sichuan released a video in which a large number of residents in Dazhou, Sichuan sat in a row on the bridge. It was already past 1 1 at night. This picture looks spectacular, but that's all? Forced out by the heat? . Local residents said that it has been more than a week, and the power has been cut off for six or seven hours every day. Even some shops are closed because of power failure. In fact, it is not only Sichuan but also Chongqing that started to limit electricity. I wonder if the residents there have started to go out to enjoy the cool at night.

Because of the power failure in hot weather, the residents went out to enjoy the cool.

In such hot weather, there was no electricity at home and we couldn't sleep, so everyone came out to enjoy the cool on the bridge. As we all know, Sichuan Province is a major hydropower province in China, and it is also an important province to transmit electricity from the west to the east. This kind of thing will happen in many current areas because of the hot weather and no rain. As mentioned above, on the one hand, because it is located inland, it is difficult to reach the water vapor in the ocean, and there are still many cold air in the mountains. On the other hand, it is controlled by the subtropical high, or the Qinghai-Tibet high. The weather is hotter, and it is stronger this year, with little rainfall. Combined with these reasons, the water volume of several hydropower stations in Sichuan has been greatly reduced.
