The information in this map is intended only to provide customers with a general estimate regarding potential locations that may be impacted by a PSPS event should one become necessary. Conditions affecting a possible PSPS event can change quickly and the actual impact of a future PSPS event is uncertain.

 

Wednesday, October 8, 2025

NOTE: This forecast is based on weather conditions and fuel moisture content only. It does not include other criteria used to determine whether a PSPS may be necessary. This forecast only provides a broad overview for a potential PSPS event in the next 7 days. It is determined from an analysis of forecast weather, the potential for wind-related damage, and fuel moisture content in dead and live vegetation. It is not a fire danger forecast. The forecast is broken down by county. PSPS decisions are made at more granular levels. Only a portion of a county may experience a PSPS event. While a PSPS event may not be expected for an area, due to the interconnectivity of the grid any location within PG&E territory may be subject to PSPS event.

No Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) events are planned for the next week. A deeper marine layer combined with increased onshore flow will result in a cooler day today and tomorrow for areas near the coast with chances for drizzle and periods of breezy southwesterly winds. Farther inland, fair and dry conditions continue with seasonable temperatures. Chances for showers will increase across portions of the northern interior this evening and through the early morning hours tomorrow, spreading to the North Coast and northern mountains tomorrow ahead of an approaching weather system. This system is expected to move into the territory on Friday bringing below average temperatures, periods of breezy to locally gusty south to southwesterly winds up to 30 mph, and chances for showers and thunderstorms across the North. Aside from a few lingering showers across the North on Saturday, dry and cool conditions will continue through the rest of the weekend. A secondary system may move into the region early week bringing additional chances for precipitation across the northern and central portions of the territory; however, details remain unclear at this time.  Fuels: The annual grass crop is fully cured across the territory and features above normal loading across the northern half of the territory and near to below normal loading farther south. Live fuel moisture content in brush is mostly at critical levels and approaching annual minimum values. Dead fuel moisture values will fluctuate but are near critical levels away from the coast. The latest 4 Month Seasonal Outlook from Northern Operations Predictive Services is forecasting normal fire potential area-wide October through December. Southern Operations Predictive Services is forecasting above normal fire activity along the Southern California coast from October through December with normal activity expected elsewhere. There are 410 of 788 circuits in High Fire Risk Areas (HFRA) that are EPSS-enabled today. The remaining 378 circuits in HFRA will have devices postured in normal settings due to low FPI ratings and recent rainfall. Additionally, 0 EPSS Buffer-only circuits are enabled today.
