Utility companies warn of more power shutoffs tomorrow
From CNN's Cheri Mossburg
Pacific Gas and Electric and Southern California Edison are putting customers on standby, warning of yet more Public Safety Power Shutoffs due to increased wildfire risk.
PG&E estimates that 520,000 to 640,000 customers in 35 counties could see power cuts.
More than 15,000 Southern California Edison customers are currently without power. Another 350,000 customers could face shutoffs.
High winds are in the forecast again: The winds expected to hit the state Tuesday into Wednesday. This wind event is not expected to be as severe as this past weekend, according to the National Weather Service.
Warm temperatures, low humidity and strong winds triggered a "red flag warning" due to the high fire danger.
