So I’m sitting here in 94087 waiting for the lights to go out, but still have electricity here. Depite PG&E’s robo-caller leaving me a warning twice a day.

Anyway, my generator is ready to go so that the freezer doesn’t thaw. Otherwise so far it has been a non-event.




Unless it's a quirk of power transmission, I'm surprised much of that area would be affected. I was thinking anything west of Foothill would be dicey.


Apparently most of 94087 is good, but my little corner of it seems to share a feed with some of the Cupertino hill country. At least going by the outage maps I have seen.


Ahh. Yeah; all the maps I saw looked like hill country.
