Doesn't California have a third world power grid? Very outdated electric infrastructure I heard.

Who gives a fuck?? Those Snowflakes hate everything that makes power except wind and solar. Let them enjoy a life off the grid!! It will do those crayonhead idiots a lot of good to get back to nature.

Just got off the phone with my sister, who lives in El Dorado Hills, their power went out last night at midnight and is still off. Thankfully, they have a portable generator with their RV. My 87 yo father lives in Lincoln and they have power there.

Power company ( PG&E) decided it was best to shut off power cause if the wind blows it could start fires from their poorly maintained lines.

You're obviously ignorant and miss the point. It's pathetic that Kommiefornia has become such a shithole place, worse than 3rd world countries. This is what happens when communism infects a country. Kommiefornia is the next Venezuela. Corrupt libtard politicians and insane laws lead to anarchy.

I'm in Calaveras County. No power for about four hours now. Cell phones stopped working shortly after power went out. Cell towers must have run out of juice.

We had multiple warnings of when the power was to go out:
10pm last night
12 pm last night
Noon today. Then changed to 8pm. Then rumor was that if power hadn't gone out then it wouldn't be shut off here. Then.... it went out around 4.

The PGE website has inaccessible most of the last 24 hours. So we've been trying to get our own info off various news sites.

When I called Att yesterday to ask if cell service would work during shutdown they said "they didn't know and were looking into it."

This whole thing has been super disorganized. What a circus.

Now...we don't know if power will come back on tomorrow....or Sunday. There are conflicting reports all over online.

Btw... other than a few gusts of wind earlier. There has been NO wind. Not even a gentle breeze right now.

Remember Enron? They made millions with blackouts, and laughed at the consumers. These energy companies will make millions from this, and use it to fix their failing grid, which should have been maintained this whole time. And, they will keep the profits.

My leading theory (as I have many) is that this is staged to get people riled up. Then the government will step in to "help" PG&E upgrade their infrastructure in the name of helping the people. Because this has been such a hassle the sheeple will gladly get behind this scheme of funneling our money into my rich peoples pockets.

Another idea is that it might get the masses behind funding more green energy.
