Pacific Gas and Electric may cut power to more than 1 million people in Northern and Central California amid extreme fire weather

Pacific Gas and Electric may cut power to more than 1 million people in Northern and Central California on Sunday amid extreme fire weather that’s expected to bring the strongest winds and driest conditions of the year.

Power is expected to be restored within 12 hours after the winds subside from Monday to Tuesday morning, PG&E said. “This is expected to be the strongest wind event of 2020,” said David King, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Monterey. The winds in Northern California are expected to pick up about 11 a.m. Sunday in the North Bay Mountains and East Bay hills, increasing gradually throughout the day in areas above 1,000 feet, King said. By Sunday evening, the winds are expected to intensify and become more widespread, affecting a broader swath that encompasses much of the Bay Area, including the East Bay and Santa Clara valleys, the Santa Cruz Mountains and the San Francisco Peninsula, he said.

Worst power computer ever

yay soexcited impeach GavinNewsom

Now you tell me?!

It's unfortunate that California has such poor political leadership. California has incredible resources, and yet managed by a bunch of Democrat imbeciles.

Wouldn't it be more newsworthy to report on the days when Califorlorn HAS power, now?

How is that democrat vote working for you, Cali? What do you think? Think that some of those poles and power lines should have been replaced oh, let's see, about twenty years ago?

I hope not. Californians have been through quite a lot all year.🙁

Oh my God ! Hope everything run well after ! Keep well beautiful CA

Better stay away from here during football and World Series game 5! Lol
