"December 16, 2025, 5:06 PM Alert
Xcel Energy prepares for likely Public Safety Power Shutoff, working to limit customer impact
Customers outside PSPS may also be impacted by wind, power outages
DENVER— (December 16, 2025)— Xcel Energy continues to refine the areas and number of customers impacted by a likely Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) tomorrow, December 17. The PSPS, is being considered to reduce the risk of wildfire, keeping communities and customers safe. Weather forecasts include very high winds and dry conditions along the Front Range. The National Weather Service has issued a Red Flag Warning for this weather event.
Xcel Energy is planning for a likely PSPS beginning around 10 a.m., impacting around 52,000 customers in Boulder, Clear Creek, Jefferson, Larimer and Weld counties. Risk assessments based on the latest forecast data and advanced modelling tool outputs, as well as recent improvements to grid infrastructure, have enabled us to reduce the size of the affected areas. Due to changing weather conditions, the PSPS event is now expected to begin at 10 a.m. rather than at 12 noon."

(via VC ACS-ARES)"The National Weather Service and Southern California Edison are monitoring elevated fire weather conditions anticipated across wind-prone areas, with brief periods of critical fire weather in Ventura County beginning in the early morning hours of Tuesday, October 28th.
Although winds and low humidity are expected to diminish Tuesday night into Wednesday, a warm and dry air mass will persist, sustaining the elevated fire danger. There remains a 20–30% probability of Red Flag Warnings being issued for portions of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties through early Wednesday.
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA PUBLIC SAFETY POWER SHUTOFF (PSPS)
Southern California Edison is presently monitoring 8 circuits for potential PSPS beginning Tuesday, 10/28/25 at 12:00am – 10/29/25 at 3:00pm.

SCE Discussion on Wildfire Safety & Public Safety Power Shutoffs - Sept. 30 at City Hall & Virtual
PSPS SCE TOWN HALL newsflash 9.30.2025SCE Live Discussion on Wildfire Safety and Public Safety Power Shutoffs
During times of low humidity, dry vegetation and high winds, Southern California Edison may use Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) to proactively and temporarily shut off power to keep communities safe and reduce the risk of a fire caused by utility equipment. (SCE was authorized to implement PSPSs by the California Public Utilities Commission in 2018.) Due to the risk of extreme weather facing Southern California, residents may experience longer and more extensive PSPS outages, including in areas that historically have not experienced PSPS.
To help community members stay informed and prepared for Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS), Southern California Edison will host a live discussion for the Las Virgenes and Malibu communities on Tuesday, September 30, 2025, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM with the option to join a virtual livestream. There will be an opportunity for questions and feedback.

Good to see our city council is looking at solving some of the issues with traffic lights going out (significant number of traffic accidents, many with injuries, due to power outages the last few months -- wildfire risk shutdowns)

Just got back the generator I loaned out to an old Scouting friend, due to two weeks of PSPS shutdowns in the neighborhood. They're going to go try to put together their own battery system, so don't have any interesting in buying it or keeping it.

Our local paper talks about how much of a hit the shutdowns have been to local businesses. (I mean, better than your town being razed by fire... but seriously). https://www.toacorn.com/articles/businesses-big-and-small-take-huge-psps-hit/ #SCE #PSPS

HEY SCE... THIS IS BECAUSE OUR POWER WAS SHUT OFF DUE TO YOUR PSPS SHUTDOWNS FOR SEVERAL DAYS TWO WEEKS IN A ROW AND I COULDN'T GET INTO YOUR BILLING SYSTEM BECAUSE YOU ONLY SEND EMAILS AND EMAIL AND INTERNET IS DAMN IMPOSSIBLE IN A BLACKOUT.

Love letter from SCE (Southern California Edison)
Unsurprised by this, this is why there is a LiFePo4 battery charging in front of my house right now, LOL.
(Power outages, fortunately, can be managed, better than fires... which are not so easy in wind, as we have all seen).

Repeating this advice: if you used your generator last week to keep power to your house in Southern California, it most likely needs an oil change. Do it before Monday. They need an oil change every 100 hours. 5w30 or 10w30 depending on your model, usually. #generators #backuppower #PSPS #poweroutages
