Possible Power Cut for 5,200 Individuals in Northern California: PG&E Issues Warning – Hot

OF DAYS. BACK TO YOU. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, HEATHER. RIGHT NOW, THOUSANDS OF PGA CUSTOMERS ARE GETTING READY FOR POTENTIAL POWER OUTAGES TONIGHT. THE SHUTOFFS COULD HAPPEN BECAUSE OF DRY, WINDY WEATHER FOR PARTS OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. PGA SAYS 5200 CUSTOMERS COULD BE AFFECTED IN EIGHT COUNTIES. MOST OF THOSE ARE IN TEHAMA AND SHASTA COUNTIES IN OUR AREA INCLUDES ABOUT 480 CUSTOMERS IN COLUSA COUNTY AND THEN TEN CUSTOMERS IN YOLO COUNTY. SO METEOROLOGIST HEATHER WALDMAN IS ALSO TRACKING THE WINDS FOR US AND OF COURSE, WE SHOULD POINT OUT THAT PGA MAKES THESE DECISIONS BASED ON WHAT THEIR METEOROLOGISTS ARE SAYING. SO, HEATHER, WHAT ARE YOU SEEING? THAT’S RIGHT. WE WILL GET A NORTH BREEZE, BUT IT’S GOING TO BE IN A VERY CONFINED PART OF THE SACRAMENTO VALLEY, THE WEST SIDE OF THE SACRAMENTO VALLEY. SO IF YOU’RE WATCHING FROM, SAY, MIDTOWN, THE FOOTHILLS, YOU MAY NOT NOTICE MUCH OF A BREEZE TONIGHT OR INTO THE DAY TOMORROW. WE’RE WATCHING THIS AREA OF LOW PRESSURE AS IT DROPS TO THE SOUTH. WINDS BEHIND IT WILL TURN OUT OF THE NORTH AGAIN ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE SACRAMENTO VALLEY. NOT MUCH OF A BREEZE OUT THERE RIGHT NOW. IT’S AFTER SUNSET TONIGHT, RIGHT AROUND TEN, 11:00. THAT’S WHEN THIS NORTH BREEZE PICKS UP. BUT AGAIN, LOOK AT THE NARROW CORRIDOR HERE. YUBA CITY, PARADISE, RELATIVELY CALM WITH THE WINDS. SAME THING FOR THE FOOTHILLS. SACRAMENTO, STOCKTON, NOT MUCH IN THE WAY OF WIND, BUT IF YOU’RE IN WILLIAMS OR WILLOWS, THAT’S WHERE THE WINDS MAY BE SUSTAINED. ANYWHERE FROM 15 TO 25MPH, PRETTY MUCH ANYWHERE WEST OF I-5 AND TO THE EAST OF THE COASTAL RANGE. THAT’S WHERE THE WINDS WILL BE. THIS IS 10:00 THURSDAY MORNING. THAT’S WHERE WE GET A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A BREEZE THAT MAY KICK IN INTO PARTS OF THE DELTA. SO FAIRFIELD, VACAVILLE, YOU MAY FEEL AN INCREASE IN THAT DRY BREEZE AS WELL. BUT BY THE TIME WE GET TO THURSDAY AFTERNOON, THE WINDS REALLY SETTLING OUT. SO REALLY THE FOCUS FO
