I live in the San Bernardino Mountains too in a town called Lytle Creek and for years they replaced everything they needed to replace to make it safe, but power shut-offs are getting worse, they only really started a few years ago. They told us we have to replace all the old equipment so that they wouldn't have to shut off our power, but they are still doing it and even more so now and for longer durations.
We get more power outages, too, because of the new sensors they have put in the lines that are designed to keep fallen lines from starting fires. It is not that bad where I live, so I can't complain. I am glad it is safer. Power lines need to be underground or people need battery backups or some kind. Just a portable battery power generator and a couple of folding solar panels [glass!!!] or just glass panels with portable stands would be a big help. Folding solar panels are not a good idea in high winds, but you only put them out when the winds die down. Down comforters are a wonderful thing. Blankets are pathetic compared to down. Down mixed with quilless feathers and synthetic blend ticking isn't too expensive either. You won't believe how good down is if you have never tried it.
This is predictable: People are screaming bloody murder saying Edison, and other power companies, must deenergize power lines during predicted wind events, and then complain they have no power when they do.

If your gas is still working, 1. heat up the water at your stove 2. Put the hot water in any plastic bottle 3. Place it on your abdomen until you are sweating
It seems like when people give up responsibility for every aspect of their own well being they are at the mercy of the authorities. Can they not install generators at their houses and thereby take back responsibility for themselves?
I have a natural gas generator..in the summer when its 110 out a little battery bank is laughable and my power is off for weeks at a time, while this state forces green energy crap on all of us we have the highest energy rates in the US and the most unreliable, like the big battery fire today at moss landing green crap isnt reliable or safe at all..get us back our natural gas peaker plants
@@rayb.6537I’m sure he meant with solar and lithium. We’re the same way in our 5th wheel. Been running everything except AC, clothes dryer and electric side of our gas/electric water heater off our 1.2kw solar and 600AH lithium battery bank since September, 2020. Unless we’re running one of the above items we don’t even know the power is out.
Complaining about shut offs as news of lawsuits are being reported in LA. Edison isn’t taking the risk ever again. Better start researching generators cause it’s only downhill from here folks.
Shocking to find out they don't use insulated wires, which means anything, ANYTHING, that touches the bare wire, it will spark and the electricity will arch and find something close to connect with and that's how fires start.
We do but in Forest Falls it was off for a WHOLE WEEK! And we were fine with it being off the first 2 1/2 days of extrewinds, but there hasn’t been any sense January 9th! They turn our power off in the whole town about twice a month for “”maintenance” and that’s been going on ever since the Eldorado fire
Iive in a ev car at the ev stations going in on the I 10 all the way to AZ , its s project in the works for Calif , I went without utilities for 14 years , in a van, Im so so tired of the fires, floods , mudslides and those the crooks that cause it , may the Lord keep you safe 🙏
The fact that in our homes we have to have insulated wire to prevent fires, yet these super high power lines are just bare conductors is horrible outdated and unsafe design. All the conductors should be replaced with insulated ones, not just in high fire risk areas. Edison is the worst power company to EVER EXIST
They did us the same way last week. We are a senior community. They kept telling us they were turning it back on. But it was off for almost 4 days. Our food had started to spoil.
The problem is that everything is so reliant on electricity three days, but the electrical company doesn’t do enough to secure its service to its customers. They’d rather pay their CEO a huge salary. I live in the mountains. The house I live in has an electric stove. So when the power is out I can’t cook, can’t get any news, can’t communicate, can’t warm my house (we have a fireplace but it doesn’t heat beyond the room it’s in). Many people can’t work when the power is out and businesses can’t operate, especially our local restaurants. The climate in SoCal has been the same for at least a hundred years. Winds, low humidity and, well, fire conditions are not shocking. Things need to change. During the days we had no power, there was absolutely no wind in any of these communities.
They should all have their own generators . Would they rather have their houses burn down because a wildfire was started because they didnt turn off the power when it got windy like what just happened ?
It's terrible that Edison just randomly turns off these people's homes without updated and ongoing communication with them. To just literally leave the elderly and families inside their homes cold for long indeterminate periods without providing them batteries, generators even just to rent, or ANY other power source is unconsciousable! It's a shame that the utility companies with all their monopolies and high prices treat their customers less than human at times like this.
Give Newsome a break he just built a $10 million home and it takes a lot of antiquing to fill a house with that much space and yesterday must especially hard for Bass not being able to attend the inauguration of Mozambique’s new Prime Minister yesterday. Democrats are making our lives worse by the day and there are way to many people who are allowing to happen the people doing the screwing have convinced them Orange Man Bad.
@ here’s how the internet works, type Newsome’s new house press return and as if by magic that thing in your hand will give you the answer. 20 miles from San Francisco he purchased it November from one of the heirs of the Hyatt Hotels
They don't want people living in rural and hard to get to areas! So they are going to make it difficult for you to stay or theyl force you out one of the hard ways!😮😢
Go ask your neighbors in Malibu if their power is back on. Which way do you want it? Maybe if you live in the mountains you should be more self sustaining.
Tons of reports of lawsuits against Edison already before any official information to the cause of Eaton ( not palisades) and they wonder why they remain disconnected
You are in federal violation of deleting my comments. I spent a lot of time talking to Edison. They told me there was no line down and the reson there was no power was because of a event
Like can you imagine living in these Santa Ana wind-prone but also heavy snow prone areas and being outraged when you lose power? Honey you decided to live up here and you haven't figured out how to get your own generator? Shut up.
That's funny. Ever time I put the phone number to report power outages or down lines you take it down. I will have to find a greedy lawyer from Beverly Hills and he can have all the money he can get.
Oh and yes how about the lazy tree company. Find a dead end road set up traffic cones or block movement and sit in their truck watching videos. During snow in 2021. So many branches took out the power lines. Because they get paid to milk the clock. But our Edison rates sure go up.

Yeah I used to live in Crestline. Thats one reason I'm glad I dont live there anymore. Power was down all day every other week.
They are doing this in Crestline area for a couple years now updating equipment but still we continue to get these outages

Get to know it.
My parents became hospitalized as a result of the power being shut off last week.

1. heat up the water at your stove
2. Put the hot water in any plastic bottle

They have all these televised community meetings and then they turn off the power.
No problems here during outages.
Solar panels and batteries, plus a generator.
Sure beats being a homeless victim of a fire storm.
It seems like when people give up responsibility for every aspect of their own well being they are at the mercy of the authorities. Can they not install generators at their houses and thereby take back responsibility for themselves?
There's also less expensive ways to go. We bought a Jackery and a propane heater. Works for us in Running Springs!

The big wind never materialized.
A lot of other folks in Riverside County have been without power for about a week or more.
GAVIN NEWSOM is going never to blame.
My area went thru this for a week!! But, No Fires. Just hold tight San Berdo🥰🥰🥰 Thank You for your SACRIFICE❤❤❤We dearly appreciate YOU!! ❤️❤️❤️
Shocking to find out they don't use insulated wires, which means anything, ANYTHING, that touches the bare wire, it will spark and the electricity will arch and find something close to connect with and that's how fires start.
This is why you should prep.
Water, food, firewood, and a generator.

How is this legal??

Can you spell Generac????
Don't most of those people have fireplaces
mountains say Colorado, Montana California should always be prepared for power outages
Its firebugs and slooow response.

there just getting started . what power will be next .
Hell we live next to the Devil Canyon Power Plant near the Univerity and they shut us off all the time! Kiss my butt before Ill buy an EV!
2 weeks I heard in Big Bear.
People food gona go bad

If you have an oxygen demand and no generator maybe you should think about that a little harder

Trojan fight song playing for those with power shut off.
Were they not given a heads up? It’s obviously because of the winds and their safety!
Fox the problem Edison
Light off mucho 🐥🐥🐥 making time .
They're lucky they still have a house to connect power to.
and should have a battery backup system by now at least a basic one.
Like can you imagine living in these Santa Ana wind-prone but also heavy snow prone areas and being outraged when you lose power? Honey you decided to live up here and you haven't figured out how to get your own generator? Shut up.
They’re rich, they can get solar if they don’t want their power out.
Get a generator and solar
It’s cold

Get solar and tesla powerwall and stop putting yourselves to authoritarian rule of so cal edison
Or a cheap $ 500 generator.
Rich people problems.
People complain rather than prepare - we live in a world of narcissists that think the government has their back 😂
I'm getting a diesel generator for my house.
