PG&E eyes another Northern California power shutoff after weekend PSPS

PG E is warning tens of thousands of customers across Northern and Central California that they could lose power this week, just days after another Public Safety Power Shutoff.The new potential PSPS could begin late Wednesday and continue through Saturday as dry, gusty offshore winds raise wildfire risk. PG E said the strongest winds are expected in the Sierra, Southern Central Coast and parts of the North and East Bay. About 30,000 customers across 22 counties are currently in the potential shutoff area, PG E says, including roughly 2,000 Medical Baseline customers. The warning comes immediately after a separate PSPS that began last Friday. PG E shut off power to about 10,400 customers in Colusa, Glenn, Shasta, Tehama and Yolo counties early Sunday as strong winds and dry conditions increased wildfire danger.
