It is a common and frustrating problem: several outlets stop working at once, often on a warm day. Because those outlets usually share a single circuit, one failure point can take out the whole run.
The most frequent causes are a tripped GFCI upstream that controls the others, a loose or backstabbed connection that expands and loses contact as it heats up, or an overloaded circuit. Heat makes marginal connections worse, which is why the timing feels tied to the weather.
A methodical technician traces the circuit to the exact failure point rather than guessing. Once the loose connection or tripped device is found and corrected, the whole circuit comes back reliably.
