Customers without power, last 24 hours

Outages

Largest first. "Out since" comes from the utility when it says, otherwise it's when this board first saw the outage (marked with ≥). Restore times are the utility's estimate.

Public safety power shutoffs

Planned shutoffs utilities use in high fire danger, from PG&E's and SCE's shutoff maps. Shutoffs already in progress also show as outages with the cause "Public safety shutoff".

Grid stress

GridVigil's pressure score (0 to 100). High pressure in a heat wave means Flex Alerts and, at worst, rotating outages.

Weather, air and fire

Weather alerts

Wind and fire weather, next 48 hours

Strong gusts with dry air are what trigger safety shutoffs. Red marks gusts of 25 mph or more with humidity at or under 25%, or 15 mph or more at or under 15%.

Air quality

US AQI modeled by Open-Meteo (CAMS) at each county's center. Wildfire smoke can be much worse locally; check AirNow's fire and smoke map for sensor readings.

Wildfires, satellite hotspots and earthquakes

Active fires from Cal Fire (California) and NIFC (Oregon), satellite heat detections from kanari.io (last 48 hours, probable or corroborated), and USGS earthquakes M2.5+ in the last day.

Internet

Reachability, last 24 hours

IODA active probing: address blocks that answered, as a share of each network's 24 hour median. A drop of a few points across a whole carrier is a real outage. These are statewide, so a single neighborhood outage won't show.

Online services

From official status pages, OutageDeck and LiveOrDown (independent probes from 3 regions). Problems first within each group.
