California Drought

My weatherman lied! He said it would be raining continuously for the last 14 hours but not a drop yet.

PGE's latest update after 24 hours down:

"It could take up to 24 hours before we have an estimate of when your power will be on."

Let's see if they can beat EWEB.
It took me about 8 days and 5 hours to get power back during the coldest period of the year.
After about day 3 I think they just erased all of the estimates of when power would be restored. It would be restored when they get around to it.
I'm not sure they did any assessments in my neighborhood until about day 4 or 5, and for the next couple of days may have had one tree crew, and one power crew working a pretty large neighborhood.

We went almost a week once when a tornado destroyed the power substation about ten miles from us. Fortunately it was early October and not cold yet.

Yeah…. We got a whole .7” and a major 4 minute power outage. Glad I got that standby generator or I would have been miserable. LOL

I would take me longer than 4 minutes to drag the generator out
0.7 " is good for the desert... about 1/3rd of your annual rainfall in one event.
I'm thinking this will be a good year for desert wildflower viewing.
I'm planning a couple of trips,
