Well their hydropower production was down substantially last year due to the drought.

Much more meltwater now for them to generate power this year. Much better snowpack in the Sierra Nevada mountains today.

Plus we are sending down south record amounts of power from the Columbia this spring.

It's great having renewables pick up more of the loads down there.

And with more wind and solar being installed that trend just continues to displace more and more FF generation permanently.
