With strong, dry winds expected to tear through vast portions of California on Wednesday, the power supply to more than 800,000 homes may be turned off by Pacific Gas and Electric as part of an effort to reduce the risk of wildfires.
The raging winds, referred to as"Diablo winds," will be coming from the northeast at 20 to 30 mph, with gusts as high as 55 mph. PG&E warned many of its customers they should expect to be without power early Wednesday morning through Friday morning, as weather models show the winds may be the strongest the area has seen in nearly two years.
PG&E noted that customers in the nearly 34 counties -- Alameda, Butte, Contra Costa, Napa, Placer, Santa Cruz, Santa Clara, Sonoma among them -- could be affected.
