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.
Friday, July 4, 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. Seasonably cool temperatures expected today with breezy onshore flow this afternoon. West northwest winds gusting up to 35 mph are forecast for this afternoon along the coast and coastal gaps with winds up to 25 mph elsewhere; overall, winds will be weaker than yesterday. Temperatures are anticipated to gradually warm over the weekend with daytime highs topping out near-normal across the interior returning to near-normal, while below-normal temperatures continued along the coast due to persistent onshore flow and marine clouds. High pressure is then favored to build over the territory by the middle and latter part of next week resulting in warmer temperatures, primarily across the inland valleys and interior.
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 670 of 788 circuits in High Fire Risk Areas (HFRA) that are EPSS-enabled today. The remaining 118 circuits in HFRA will have devices postured in normal settings due to slightly cooler temperatures and low FPI ratings. Additionally, 18 EPSS Buffer-only circuits are enabled today.
