Thousands in Southern California still without power because of high wind damage

More than 10,000 Southern California Edison customers remained without power Saturday morning, Jan. 18 as the utility scrambled to fix equipment damaged by the recent high winds.

“I don’t have information specific to a city or a community, but I can tell you as of 7 a.m. this morning, there are 10,186 customers without power,” said SCE spokesperson Gabriela Ornelas.

    As winds throughout the region remained mild Saturday, the utility initiated no new public safety power shutoffs. Those are outages that the utility starts preemptively due to heightened wildfire risk.

    Still, the utility is considering public safety shutoffs to communities across Southern California that — if enacted — could affect about 40,000 customers in San Bernardino County, 18,000 customers in Riverside County, 13,000 customers in Los Angeles County and 5,000 customers in Orange County. The timing is unclear.

    SCE customers can search by address to check if a scheduled public safety outage could affect them: sce.com/outage-center/check-outage-status.
