More than 3,300 PG&E customers in San Luis Obispo County are without power on Sunday morning because of 14 separate outages. While the cause of one of the outages is under investigation, 13 of the outages are planned public safety power shutoffs.

Because of high winds and dry conditions, PG&E turned the power off for 2,998 customers in northern SLO County on Saturday afternoon to help prevent wildfires. PG&E estimates power will be restored by 11 a.m. on Sunday.

At 7:30 a.m. on Sunday, 372 PG&E customers in Los Osos lost power. PG&E estimates the power will be back on by 12:15 p.m.

Sorry Tesla Dealers, this is not a good sign!


Gee, if only we had alternative means of energy production to subsidize the outages… Been a pretty windy year so far, and the sun has certainly been out. Wind and solar are viable options we NEED to be pursuing or else its just gonna be more if this :/


Any source of electricity will use the same transmission lines- which often spark wildfires. Wind and solar would be viable at point of use (homes, commercial) if it was reliable and could replace plant transmission.
