Baltimore Power Outage and Community Response | Baltimore News

Baltimore braced for sweltering heat as over 3,000 residents faced power outages Friday morning—blamed on aging underground cables. Though numbers dropped to under 600 by afternoon, the heat made every outage feel like a crisis. Neighbors rallied, like Bob Freund in Essex, powering fridges with generators and helping out. BGE stepped up staffing and urged conservation: crank down thermostats, close blinds, and keep ACs serviced. They’re asking customers to report outages—because when the sun’s blazing, teamwork keeps the lights on.
