Over 600 Danville Customers Without Power Wednesday: PG&E

DANVILLE, CA — About 614 Danville customers are still without power Wednesday morning following another bomb cyclone that hit the Bay Area.

The largest outage is affecting 442 customers in the neighborhood near Mt. Diablo State Park, on the streets near Cameo Drive and Caballo Ranchero Drive. This is down from the roughly 2500 customers who lost power Tuesday as winds of up to 74 miles per hour hit Mt. Diablo. All schools that were affected Tuesday have power this morning, according to Danville spokesperson Jenn Starnes.

82,932 customers were without power as of 5 p.m. Tuesday, according to PG&E.

The town received more reports of fallen trees and branches around town, and staff worked overnight to clean them up, Starnes said. Despite the damage from storms on Tuesday and March 14, the town does not anticipate needing more crews.

Around the Bay Area, the bomb cyclone left at least one person dead, numerous roads closed, a derailed Amtrak train, a blown-over big rig on the Bay Bridge, canceled transit including ferries and buses, grounded flights, uprooted trees, and almost 200,000 PG&E customers without electricity.
