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.

Thursday, November 20, 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 cold front associated with light to moderate rain and higher elevation mountain snow is currently moving through central and southern areas with scattered showers behind it. Precipitation will mostly taper off by tonight, but showers will linger across the southern interior through tomorrow morning. As the system departs, locally breezy north-northeast winds will develop in the Sacramento Valley and northern Sierra foothills during the morning tomorrow. Fair and dry weather returns over the week and will last through most of next week before rain chances return around next weekend. Fuels: Dead fuel moisture values have increased considerably across the territory due to abundant precipitation and, along with an emerging grass crop, will help keep fire potential low. The latest 4 Month Seasonal Outlook from Northern Operations Predictive Services is forecasting normal fire potential area-wide November through February. Southern Operations Predictive Services is forecasting above normal fire activity along the Southern California coast from November through February with normal activity expected elsewhere.
