March 1, 2023 - As a result of heavy moisture that occurred overnight, as of Wednesday morning at 9 a.m., about 93,000 customers are without power.  The hardest hit counties are El Dorado (21,000 customers), Nevada (16,000 customers) and Tuolumne (10,000 customers).

There’s good news, though. For the first time in a while, the forecast calls for better weather the next three days which should benefit crews as they use aerial patrols and drones to assess damage, make repairs and restore customers.   

To support our customers, PG&E is coordinating with its community-based partners. The California Foundation for Independent Living Centers offers support for older adults and people with disabilities through the Disability Disaster Access and Resources Program. During this winter storm they are offering hotel stays and food stipends for customers, where that may be the only way to meet their specific need.  

Customers are encouraged to call the California Network of 2-1-1 (www.211.org) to connect with resources in their local communities.
