Does anyone know if they turned off power in those areas, to prevent those power lines that have fallen from sparking in flames?
No, I live across the street from the downed line and we have our electricity.
Also tree down across Myrtle by stop sign at Ayers.
we have power right now 3:15 and are half a mile from there.
I cannot wait to see PG&E’s stock price on Monday morning. It’s already $5.06
At close of trading on Friday stock price had dropped
$2.20, a 30.56% percent drop that day.
Would not be surprised to see an intraday drop off that much or more on Monday. Year to date net change, minus 78.9%
An for those who’d like to keep track,

My sister drove by it and they were live wires. There was an orange cone near them but nothing else. 911 was aware of it nut pg&e hadn’t gotten out there yet.
Best video I’ve found on downed power line, sphere of influence also know as step potential.
