An apology from pg and e ceo and a blasting from the governor under this over this power shut off. What has occurred in the last 48 hours is unacceptable. We were not adequately prepared to support the operational event. Hundreds of thousands of pg e customers are still in the dark. Why it is taking so long to get the lights back on. We are watching three dangerous fires in Southern California right now. The santa ana winds whipping up those flames. Good evening. Just a few minutes ago we got new numbers from pg e. 58 of the customers impacted by these outages have their power restored now. Here is a look at where things stand in the ha their power back on. 46 in sonoma county. 88 and santa clara county. Pg e will resume repairs and restoration at daybreak tomorrow. Remaining customers will get their power back on when it is safe to do so. We are your Survival Guide to the power shut off. We have seen coverage tonight. Beginning with live outside of pg e headquarters in San Francisco. Reporter this week has been an exercise in frustration for reporters as we have been coming to pg e headquarters and asking questions. Thbeen that pg es efforts have been less than adequate. A small group of activists holds a candlelight vigil after headquarters tonight. Hundreds of thousands of customers are still in the dark. We commit to communicate with our customers and communities which as much notice as possible. As much clarity as possible and as frequently as possible. We did not deliver on that commitment commitment. Reporter the ceo said utility should have done a better job with the shutdown. Our website crashed several times. Our maps are inconsistent perhaps incorrect. Our call centers were overloaded. To put it simply we were not adequately prepared to support the operational event. Reporter s comments follow searing remarks by California Governor Gavin Newsom who said this l prevent wildfires but failed to do so. This is not from my perspective a climate story as much as a story about greed. And mismanagement. Over the course of decades. I havent delved into those matters. I might have some slight disagreement with the governor if i did. Im looking forward. Im trying to make this better. Reporter beyond medications he believes pg e has done the best it could. Despite criticism the lights were cut off too early and the geographical boundaries of the shutdown were too large. We dont have the granularity we need to get down to a city block or one street. Reporter pg e said the bulk of the rest of the lights should be back on by tomorrow. They still need to visually inspect a lot of lines. It is hard to do so in the dark. Starting tomorrow they will be there has been a lot of stuff floating around. One of the things we have heard about tonight is what some of the pg e executives were doing in the days leading up to these unprecedented outages. What can you tell us about this . Reporter millions of people have been without power. On tuesday the chronicle is reporting some of the executives were wining and dining at dozens of some of the customers pg e some gas customers up in hillsboro as silver Oaks Alexander valley winery. On monday and tuesday night. The ceo johnson said today to the chronicle it was a colossal mistake and promised it would not happen again. Heres the statement they gave us. From pg e. While the event was planned for about a year we sincerely apologize for the insensitivity of the event. Hundreds of thousands of people in Northern California were losing their power. Were about to lose it. The pg e executives including the ceo were up eddie winery enjoying themselves. Were up in a winery. Reporter not including the ceo. The rest of that is true. In the very area that was marking a twoyear anniversary of the wine country fires. Insensitivity to say the least. As far as the weather rolls in this whole thing. Leaving aside pg es response in the power outages. The numbers are still impressive for what we did in the mountains. Look on the gust last night 77 Miles Per Hour. Mount diablo 75 mile per hour. The comparison i used for that is Hurricane Force winds began at 74 Miles Per Hour. Those are sustained. We did not have sustained winds diablo. They did gust to 75. Regardless it is done. No more red flag warnings. No wind advisories. The wind is over. What is left is dry air. The temperatures are going to bottom out. I want to show you what happens at the north bay tomorrow morning. Look at the morning low in santa rosa. 37 degrees. You take all this dry air and clear skies. Dry air cannot keep you as warm. The temperatures are going to go lower than we have experienced in a while. I will show you what it means for the east bay and south bay coming up. We will look at the seven day as well.

In moraga the lights snapped back on at this Shopping Center just before 7 pm. Pg e said there are still 5000 customers in other parts of Contra Costa County who could have to wait until six tomorrow evening to get their power back. I definitely think it couldve been handled differently and better. I think it couldve been communicated more efficiently. As somebody who works in coming occasions i understand how important communication is. They could have given people more of a heads up or provided more resources. Make sure their website was fully functioning. Im going to get solar. That is my plan. Im looking into that right now. I think it often. Orc berkeley is bracing for blackouts. Officials cancel classes for will be locked. In san jose the mayor said the power outage has cost the city more than a half million dollars. They expect that amount to go up. He now wants the utility to pay that. Maria medina is in alan rock were thousands of residents finally have their power back tonight. Reporter tonight a majority of the 20,000 impacted pg e accounts in san jose now have their lights back on. After losing their power just after 11 last night including the veterans housing facility behind me. A relief to many who rely on medical devices to survive. This was arthur on tuesday getting ready for the lights to go out. And the worst case scenario. I bought a generator today. Reporter he bought a generator to charge his wheelchair and the ventilator he uses at night. Because he suffers from sleep apnea. Without it i stop breathing. Reporter last night when he lost power. But arthur said he did not sleep well. I stopped breathing. Denly i woke up and i was coughing. We need to ensure these power shutdowns do not last more than a few hours. Reporter the mayor said the outage has already cost the city a halfmillion dollars which includes paying city workers overtime and fueling generators. That amount is expected to climb. We will continue to press that issue. And expect there will be some compensation from pg e for the considerable public costs. Reporter at the veterans housing facility were arthur and 104 other veterans live the facility is out 1500 for the outdoor fridge and generator it rented. To save hundreds of pounds of food. Arthur himself spent 200 on his generator. There was no strong winds. They still shut off the power. Reporter the power may be restored but certainly not their faith in pg es are correct what many feel was the wrong decision. I think it was a rush to judgment. A lot of people are angry about it. Reporter we are hearing from leaders that 99 who lost their power here in san jose should have it restored by tomorrow. We are following breaking news in Southern California.
