Wildfire devastation breaking details coming in from Southern California right now. There is pretty much no hope in this case because of the lack of firefighting equipment that is in this neighborhood. News is 7 pm starts now with those pg in the blackouts that are slowly coming to an end. Good evening. Just minutes ago pg e ceo admitted the utility failed to get it right. We faced a choice here between hardship on everyone or safety. And we chose safety. I do apologize for the hardship this has caused. But i think we made the right call on safety. Bill johnson apologize for all the technical problems and me mised to get them right me. R xtour maneps are inconsistent. Perhaps incorrect. Our call centers were overloaded. Put it simply we were not adequately prepared to suppvern just a short time ago blaming everyones frustration and anger on the utility itself. This is not from my perspective a Climate Change story as much as a story about greed. And mismanagement. Over the course decades. Neglect. A desire to advance not Public Safety but profits. For now it is unclear what will change to prevent another one of these massive power shutoffs. The governor argues widespread Power Outages should not become californias new normal. We see a scale and scope of something that no state in the 21st century to should experience. Restored to just under one third of the 738,000 customers who lost it. More than half 1 mithe dark. Emily turner is in Pleasant Hill tonight. Where the lights arfinally coming back e on. Reporter t power came on in Pleasant Hill about 5 15 pm a little bit later than it was anticipated. People are scrambling. Do they open their businesses or not . The frustration level is through the roof. It is not the decorations that make this Pleasant Hill neighborhood seem eerie at night. It is the pitch black from the Public Safety power shut off. Something Brooke Henriksen has been dealing with since 11 pm last night. We did not have warm showers this morning which was fun. We are walkinto and from school because i dont want to deal with the traffic lights report even the generator powering lights at this intersection overloaded and had to be replaced. T stdone. Starbucks is packed we plays for t g. Have on. Reporter the eta of restoring keeps getting pushed back. The uncertainty is frustrating. Pg e has to wait for the weather to pass before it can first inspect the lines and then turn them back on. I dont want to give definitive timelines. If we get an all clear this afternoon there is a chance that folks can be coming on the next 24 to 48 hours. Reporter there are 45 helicopters and thousands of workers ready to inspect the wires. Every inch of the 24,000 miles that have been shut down. If damage they have to make repairs. That is work that can only be done in daylight. It takes lots of time as folks have little patience. It is hard to understand what they are doing for safety. When it is inconveniencing operation of my business. Not to mention the fact we might be losing ll me someofiro y wherth. S. Nobrancho a line. They have to inspect that and make sure it is safe to make repairs before they can re energize the lines. Morgan hill power is back on in many parts of the city. We are taking a look at how Law Enforcement on this day to the shut off is doing what they can. In san jose it was just a few stop signs at times. In saratoga more stop signs but this one had a deputy keeping a watchful eye. Oakland montclair shopping district and officer outside dark storefronts. In fremont at mission boulevard one of the citys busiest intersections Police Officers were directing traffic by hand for some time. Until their engineers caltrans jerryrigged a solution. Portle ne contbox the poone ectipoweshut none out s only Police Department in the bay area to impose a pedestrian curfew within the shut off area.

One of the individuals had broken glass on his clothing. Eventually found what appears to be some burglary tools. 50 feet away from where the guys were located. We found two vehicles that had theipassenger windows broken open. Reporter as for another curfew that is a big decision involving the mayor the City Attorney and the city manager. They say it will be a gametime decision depending on how much power is still out in hi the st batoday. It got really bad on some of the ridge tops. Aaron peck joining me now. Looking at some of the numbers it is pretty impressive. To follow up on the conversation we were having s r itleis sustained. What we experienced lastnight on mount diablo was a gust. W ckfot r a time on mount diablo last night the wind hit a 75 mile per hour and gus. In the north bay mount helena 77. For the rest of us to get windy. It wasnt bad enough we even had wind advisories here. This is exactly what the forecast was all alone. The best way to get a handle on this. Is to visualize where the most intense winds were. I brought the image back to the worst of it last night. Writer the colors on this m aterth77 urr. Helee f pas eynahappened vain llfar. Northern expeenced namile per gus. You can see the differences here. For the east bay there is the diablo range. We were talking about mount diablo. There is our 75. Concorde the top gust was 25 speed. While that is certainly strong. Nowhere near why we had such a concern in the mountains where the powerlines are. And all the dry brush and trees. More with coming up in a bit. The wind as far as the red flag warning that is over.

Reporter those fires sparked underneath lines that were not reenergize. As part of this Public Safety power shut off. It gave neighbors a round here in brisbane quite the scare for a time this afternoon. It was the moment everyone had been holding their breath for during this red flag warning. Flames on a mountaintop not far from homes. The fire broke out on San Bruno Mountain above brisbane just before 11. And just deun electric lines. Reporter jason saw the smoke from the south side of San Bruno Mountain. I was in south city. We saw the smoke coming over the hill. We need to get back to my house. We jetted over here. I can see the fire trucks trying to get up there. It was very slow. I said hurry up. Reporter not the first ti sabrun evacuationw what to do. Pictures. Sentimental stuff. Vehicles. Animals. Reporter its a 90 minutes before the choppers and fire crews navigated the narrow streets at a handle on the fire to the relief of neighbors. It has been a crazy day. Everybody is all over it. It is amazing to watch how they put these out. Reporter because of that quick jump the firefighters got on the ground and in the air. This fire was contained at 11 acres. Tonight there will be two fire crews on that mountain watching it to make sure it no hotspots flare up. And this doesnt start again. We appreciate it. And moraga a close call.

Everybody is driving up and down the street honking s yelli doors. It was a neighborhood effort to get everybody up. No homes were lost but no injuries reported.
