30YEARS! “.. PG&E cus­tomers should ex­pect a dou­bling of sus­tained power out­ages in 15 years and a 4-fold in­crease in 30 years, ac­cord­ing to analy­sis by Na­tional Elec­tric Test­ing, Re­search and Ap­plications Cen­ter, Geor­gia Tech” #California https://t.co/z94dhB4VwP

It has become the new normal in Sonoma County as PG&E punishes us for the fires they caused. @GavinNewsom I would like answers! Once again, power is off and not even a breeze.

@PGE4Me Thanks for doing such a great job. No one cuts power or kills people or burns down towns like y’all do. You could teach classes on death and destruction. As a former resident of Paradise, who is still alive regardless of your efforts to kill me, I’m so proud of you. 🤮🤮 pic.twitter.com/DEeiG365ec

So why is our power out for the past 10+ hrs?? It says due to weather—with no status updates. All the food prolly going bad, with baby, full time work n the bad aur quality, an extended power loss is extremg challenging. Is someone even trying to fix it??? pic.twitter.com/qHyvca7ChG

More #California #Blackouts due to high winds. In 2012, @PGE4Me asked for $5 billion in rate hikes to fix the problem. The state denied (didn't want renewable power to look expensive). See my piece in @FDRLST https://t.co/q9uv5LTLPy @TPPF @Life_Powered_

Still no wind all night long, turn the power back on!

WTF @PGE4Me. While sure, kudos on you for the advanced warning, there's been absolutely zero wind in 95667. And I was awakened by all the automatic generators kicking in at 1:28am and have been up since. @CAgovernor make PG&E municipal like @SMUDUpdates which has no such eff-ups pic.twitter.com/JmAqkxgeCH
