Winds in Northern California have reached up to 65 miles per hour, leading to dangerous fire conditions with extremely dry air.

Thousands across California have already had their power cut due to increased wildfire risks, and many more could soon experience the safety shutoffs.

PG&E in recent years has imposed planned power shutoffs in the face of dire wildfire weather. The utility company’s equipment has been blamed for sparking some of the worst fires in state history, including the 2018 Camp Fire that devastated Paradise, and PG&E Corp. has been found liable for billions of dollars worth of destruction.
