Outage Warning: This is an important safety message from SDG&E about a likely public safety power shutoff affecting your service. Forecasted high fire risk weather conditions likely to affect power lines that serve your community may require SDG&E to shut off power to reduce the risk of a wildfire. SDG&E could begin a Public Safety Power Shutoff sometime overnight. If we shut off power, we will not turn it back on until the high fire risk has passed, and conditions are safe to do so.
We know being without electricity is difficult and we appreciate your patience. Safety is our top priority during these high fire risk conditions. If power is turn off, we may open a Community Resource Center in your area, and you will be notified.
We will provide daily updates until the high fire risk has passed or power has been restored. We will notify you again if we shut power off. Weather could affect shutoff timing and wind-related outages could occur.
What you need to know:
- We recommend you plan for an extended outage.
- Be prepared to use your personal family emergency plan, if needed.
- SDG&E will continue to monitor high fire risk conditions and will contact you with further updates.
- If power is turned off for safety, we will work to turn service back on as soon as it is safe to do so, and we may open a Community Resource Center in your area.
- You will be notified when we open a Community Resource Center, where you can charge small electronics, get water and snacks, and learn more about the power outage in your area.
- In most cases, SDG&E expects to be able to turn power back on within 24 to 48 hours after high fire risk weather conditions have passed.
- Depending on how long high fire risk weather conditions last, or if repairs are needed to damaged power lines, power could stay off longer than 48 hours.
- If you have a backup generator, please do a safety check and make sure you have enough fuel to last several days. Generator safety tips can be found here (sdge.com/generator).
- If you see a downed power line, do not touch it. Assume it is energized and extremely dangerous. Report it immediately by calling 911
- If you rely on uninterrupted power for your health and safety, or need assistance, additional support may be available.
