A few of you are missing the message completely. It's not a criticism of PSPSs - it's about NOTIFICATIONS that are inaccurate. Notifications that say we're at risk of an outage on Thursday, but instead it happens on Wednesday. Or they announce that a possible outage might happen between 12 noon and 9pm, but they cut the power at 4AM that day.

Remember, folks? Both of those happened very recently and will likely continue to wreak havoc unless (or until) the power companies implement a better strategy.

Yeah, we get it that PSPSs must happen. But come on, power providers, get your estimates up to speed!

Bosun, just having the generator is only half the solution and even then only if you are home at the time. Now to train the doxie squad how to start the darn thing and switch the panel over . Those auto start and switch over systems are great, just don't have 4K to sink into one at the moment. And when I do get home, drag the thing out, hook up what needs to be hooked and lo and behold, its usually for naught as the power pops on just as I get the engine running

bman, ordinarily, they will leave on their own within a day or two. Usually just the queen on the move!

Drift smoke is in San Diego too. It’s predicted to be real bad tomorrow here, when the temp and wind shifts.

typo - bee hive

i have a bee hove that has developed in the front yard of my Moonridge cabin.
dose anyone have any suggestions of who to contact to take care of this? and hopefully preserve the bees and hive.

Not sure what the big deal is with the PSPS. I bought a Honda EU3000IS generator 20 years ago and put in my own transfer switch on the breaker panel. No outages in my home in 20 years! Just get a generator, problem solved!

More drift smoke from the Gifford Fire in Santa Barbara County...
