LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Saturday's storm has resulted in thousands of Lake County residents being without power temporarily, but by the evening many of them had the power back on.

Pacific Gas and Electric has been working to get power restored throughout the day as the storm situation has continued.

The wet and windy weather system has been hitting customers across PG&E's service area, said company spokeswoman Megan McFarland.

In addition to Lake County, outages were reported across the North Coast and Bay Area, according to PG&E's online outage center.

McFarland said a number of storm-related outages in the Lakeport and Kelseyville areas began at 3:30 p.m. Saturday.

As of about 6:30 p.m. Saturday, McFarland said 33 Kelseyville customers were still waiting to have power restored, with no estimated time for restoration. That was down from more than 1,800 customers who initially had been impacted.

In Lakeport, a total of 2,150 customers had been impacted, but power was restored to them by 4:50 p.m., McFarland said.

In Finley, 270 customers had power restored and a smaller outage on Cobb also had been resolved, McFarland added.

With the continuing storms, there are expectations of more potential outages caused by falling trees, McFarland said.

She said anyone who sees power lines down should assume they are live and dangerous, and call 911 or the PG&E Customer Service Center at 800-743-5000.
