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.
Sunday, July 6, 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. Apart from a slight chance of isolated thunderstorms across the far North, fair and dry weather will continue today with temperatures warming across the interior, while remaining below-normal along the coast. Temperatures are forecast to trend slightly cooler through Tuesday as an area of low pressure rotates through the Bay Area with locally breezy onshore flow up to 30 mph. High pressure will strengthen over the Desert Southwest and extend into Southern California mid to late week resulting in noticeably warmer temperatures away from the coast, where daytime highs will top out in the upper 90s to around 108F. The hot and dry pattern across the interior is expected to last through next weekend and possibly into the middle part of July, while coast and Bay Area locations are anticipated to be near or slightly below-normal.
Fuels: The annual grass crop is fully cured across most of 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 is on the decline across the lower elevations and is becoming increasingly flammable below 3000 ft. Dead fuel moisture values are near or approaching critical levels at this time. The latest 4 Month Seasonal Outlook from Northern Operations Predictive Services is forecasting normal fire activity for near Coastal Areas for July and August while trending above normal for inland areas through August then above normal areawide in September. In October, above normal conditions continue over southern Humboldt, Bay Area, and Sacramento Valley while normal conditions are forecast elsewhere. Southern Operations Predictive Services is forecasting normal fire activity along the immediate southern coast and southern interior while above normal fire activity is predicted for the surrounding terrain of the San Joaquin Valley July through September. Above normal fire activity is forecast over the far southern coast in October with normal activity expected elsewhere.
There are 648 of 788 circuits in High Fire Risk Areas (HFRA) that are EPSS-enabled today. The remaining 140 circuits in HFRA will have devices postured in normal settings due to slightly cooler temperatures and low FPI ratings. Additionally, 14 EPSS Buffer-only circuits are enabled today.
