Pacific Gas & Electric will cut power to over 1 million people on Sunday to prevent the chance of sparking wildfires as extreme fire weather returns to the region, the utility announced Friday. Oct. 23, 2020.

The safety shutoffs were expected to begin as early as Sunday morning and last into Tuesday, affecting 466,000 homes and businesses, or more than 1 million residents assuming between two and three people per home or business customer. The National Weather Service issued red flag warnings for many areas, predicting winds of 35 mph or higher in San Francisco and lower elevations and up to 70 mph in some mountains. The concern is that any spark could be blown into flames sweeping through tinder-dry brush and forestland.

The upcoming weather forecast will be even more dangerous, said Scott Strenfel, the utility's chief meteorologist.

They should have buried the power lines when the neighborhood developments were built. It doesn't change the weather but it changes the outcomes.

The devotion to global capitalism is destroying the future. We need the biosphere and not the billionaires.

Don’t worry the amount of radiation that’s gonna start coming from Japan will end all of the west coasts problems. First China, now Japan, what’s next?

Sounds like that company needs to better manage their infrastructure. They know the environment of the area they serve, they need to account for it.

EARTH wake up

PG&E really needs to be broken up into smaller, manageable companies. The land area they control is larger than many european countries. You can't expect them to be able to actually handle it, granted they'll gladly take your money.

Funny how everyone screamed climate change but with covid nothing was up and running in the pollution sense of the word! Can’t blame this on climate change

Keep voting blue, California.

How many hours it can’t be all day ..........!!!!!!!

Suing the hell out of PG&E = This

thanks
