Power's normal in my part of WA state - somebody said snowstorm on the east side?
 Quoting: Pooka


Tens of thousands of people are without power after a rare October storm dumped several inches of snow on the Inland Northwest. Spokane police said tree branches fell on power lines. Signals at many traffic intersections are not functioning. Fallen tree limbs have also left many roads impassable. More than 20,000 Avista customers in Spokane County and North Idaho are without power, according to the outage map. Avista crews are on their way to fix the outages. Some of the outages could be restored between 5:30 and 6:30 a.m. on Wednesday, while an estimated time of restoration is not listed for others. @50% >> [link to hisz.rsoe.hu]

We got hit by snow about 7pm last night. I still have power, but Spokane is a mess, I guess.

I think this is all about money, it's kind of like the pharmaceutical companies in the 80s threatening to pull out of the vaccine business because of liability.

The power companies want to be relieved of any liability for fires started by power lines. They are playing hardball until people beg the state to do something about the outages.

These companies are all in bed with left wing politicians so expect legislation to be introduced limiting utility companies liability.

I live in Southern California, SDGE pulls this same crap
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76886332


Thank-you. Nailed it.

(Been telling people this for a few months now; after Brown signed that non-liability-for-the-utility-companies paperwork last year. And who pressured Brown to do THAT???)

So basically the power companies lines can't be trusted in high winds and dry conditions so they have to cut off power. How often will this happen? bi monthly?
I was just watching some news from Cali and they are reporting fires can very easy start from random acts. Welding, blown tire spark, cig butt, mowing, hot car exhaust, arson and other fluke freak accidents as has happened before.
Just my guess fire will happen.

So now if you want to live in a rural conservative area of California you won't have reliable electricity, you can't get fire insurance, gas is so expensive you can't commute.

Is this a plan to move everyone into the cities or possibly to force conservatives out of the state so the can have their liberal utopia, you know, so the whole state can be like the Gay Area.

Of course they can't because they should have been buried starting over 100 years ago. Instead, thanks to Edison and the Lumber industry, we went with above ground AC. Now everything is so regulated they can't dig underground, not should they have to, if they would just go for the Electric system we should have in the first place!

Looks like a huge setup. Like someone said before fires would kill two birds with one stone. Clear the electric company of liability if it is off and fire starts. If they go under because of lawsuits it may expose some serious California corruption involved with the business would want that. 2 They keep the Agenda 21 plan rolling as written and easily readable online. Grindal61 clearly shows what is going already as far as stack and pack and corruption on the town and city councils. I am sure there is more.

Yep, we had another early snow storm. Heavy wet snow on top of trees that have not lost the leaves yet caused a lot of breakage and power lines down.

CA is preparing for a major public safety power outage tomorrow. I can only imagine the meltdowns if it gets as bad as they are predicting.
What we understand is if they get the 50mph winds they believe is coming, every foot of line will have to be inspected before they restore power.
For the public: Linemen aren’t responsible for the outage. Likewise, you’ve been warned this would happen in order to attempt to prevent fires. If you aren’t prepared by now with generators and other measures to prevent your “oh my gawddd I had $6,837 worth of steak in that freezer” calls, I mean, come on. You’ve been told this would happen for over a year now. Remember that not a single one of the linemen out there are on the hook for your irresponsibility, the wind, the planned outages or your steak - so leave them alone. The longer you pester them the longer it takes for them to give the all clear.
In closing, as much as you now realize how lost you are without power, I hope you also realize how important linemen are to our way of life. Maybe show them the courtesy of getting out of the way while they work to get everything back online following this outage.

Exactly.

He has exposed alot of this nefarious plan for CA - and the World thereafter..

Now that the power is off in targeted areas, they can freely start their fires (no legal liability) and push the Plan - for pure-profit and/or for Agenda 21 furtherance and augmentation.

I know 6 people (personally) that have moved away from California for these very fears/reasons.

PG&E willingly and purposefully choose to service lines all over the state, but neglected enormous fire dangers, told workers not to clear all, this on camera no less. They don't give a fuck, none of it makes sense unless it really is some kind of land grab Agenda 21 enacting scenario.

WOW! just think of all those "Smart Homes" that are now without being smart!

1. just walk in, no need to break in!
2. dont worry about the home owners, they're too busy trying to get in themselves
3. with all that heavy lifting into the back the van, you can ask alexa to make you a coffee and order a crate of beers for when you reach home.
4. what about face recog? dont worry elec is out, backup gens kick in in 20 mins, then go for it, all cams will be down.

only dumb people own smart homes that ultimately rely on electricity to work. no elec, dumb home owned by dumb people!
Yet we stand idle - We shall never surrender!

Number without power still climbing.

Now up to 549,000 customers (11:50 am local time)

Once the noon to 5pm (local time) cutoffs start occuring look for the numbers to go up dramatically.

Going to be an interesting commute home for those who have to go through areas with stoplights but no electricity to power them. Around here when that occurs my normal 30 minute rush hour commute home at least doubles, a couple of times it has tripled (and at least I had electricity when I got home - many of those people will be going home to a dark house)
