I’ll call an electrician to take a look. Thanks again.

I want to thank Sandi from Sierra Sentry for driving by our cabin yesterday and taking a snapshot to let me know everything looks good from the outside
On another note, I received a text saying they thought power would be restored by 6 p.m this evening.
Thanks for all you do Sandi for the people up here.

I have a place on Yuroc near Choctaw. We are here in Paso Robles sheltering as we are in our 70’s. Is anyone near there?

Will probably have Sandi go by and check the place later…

Looking more closely, it appears the conduit might be ok but the wires may have been pulled on. Best to have electrician have a look ASAP

Just heard that electrical damage at homes has to be fixed before power restoration. I cannot confirm this directly.

[kenshawnewby]

Thank you so much for taking a look, much appreciated. Stay safe.

Kenshawnewby a couple treetops came down. Missed house but one hit your powerline and damaged where it attaches to the house. The powerline is drooping lower than normal. I could not see any other damage but you have a mess to deal with in front.
I tried to send email with pictures but don’t know if it went through.

Just got a call from PGE saying they expect to restore power in our area by noon on Monday, 3/23. We are at the corner of Kenshaw and Wikami.

[bigtreestechman]

I’ll walk down and have a look later today if possible.

[kenshawnewby]

Wow! I didn’t know that the storm had caused that much damage. I have a cabin at 2937 Kenshaw wy. Anybody know if there are any trees down or looks like there’s any damage to the house?

PGE texted me this evening at 7:48 to say “PG&E: Pwr restored in your area @7:21pm Mar 20 Still w/o pwr goto pge.com/outage”

I don’t know if that is true since I have no connection via internet to my house.

My place is on Chumash Circle

We got out late Sunday morning after getting stuck, funny story for another time. As an “out of towner” I really appreciate the local businesses. While there are many great local businesses, in this context I highly recommend Sniders for driveway clearing and Sierra Sentry for property checks (i.e piece of mind).

Sandi was quick to get to our place and send us photos of how it weathered the storm. With the power out, I didn’t want to drive out, check on the place just to turn around and drive back. If you’re concerned about your place, she can help.

I hope I’m not breaking any forum rules by recommending local services. I hope everyone is doing well!

I did get several PGE “updates” on my cell phone. Sorry, I would have posted them, but incorrectly figured others would get them, too. I will post all the future ones I get. The last one I got was yesterday, 350+ customers without power, restoring power due some time next week. Of course, I think even these have to be taken with a large grain of salt

Thanks for this update. I have signed up for text, email and phone call and have not received a single update and am not sure why this vital information is not posted on their outage map. The outage map simply states that there is no estimate for repair and the outage was caused by equipment failure. Again, not helpful if you are stuck in your cabin without electricity while all your food rots and wondering if you should vacate.

None of my neighbors in Big Trees were getting alerts either so clearly there is a fail with the alert system. Glad someone is getting the right communications. For those who are getting regular updates, would be great if you posted them on this site.
