12:58 p.m. update from EPD Chief Steve Watson:
"I’m listening in to the 12:30 PM PG&E PSPS phone conference now. HUMBOLDT is now in both Time Periods 4 and 6 (4 is a south sliver of the county—Alderpoint, Miranda, Blocksburg; 6 is the majority of the rest of north HUMBOLDT). They are watching Time Period 6 most closely as the weather is trending downward. "
"They are in “wait and see” mode regarding whether or not they might be able to clear this county. However, currently we are still in scope for another de-energization so plan as if we will lose power sometime today, possibly around 7:00 PM but this time is not certain. They do anticipate the “all clear” for HUMBOLDT tomorrow morning possibly around 7:00 AM, followed by the power restoration process. All of this is subject to change.:
County update (1:58 p.m.):
Recent PG&E updates have offered clarification as to the anticipated loss in power for Humboldt County. The county continues to remain within scope with a revised estimated time for power loss to begin at 7:00 pm this evening. Information from PG&E has been inconsistent and ever-changing. Residents are encouraged to prepare for loss of power to occur at any point and to remain out for another night. The estimated time for the weather “all clear” is currently at 7 am on Wednesday, October 30th. Full restoration may require an additional 48 daylight hours after the “all clear” is provided.
