As of Sunday, March 19, the City of Mountain View still has dozens of Pacific Gas and Electric customers without power due to the recent winter storm. Many of those customers have been without power since Tuesday, March 14.
The City has attempted to contact PG&E for an update on the status of the restoration of electrical power to the customers who continue to be out of service. At this time, we have not been able to acquire any additional information from PG&E. The City will continue to attempt to get an update on the restoration of electrical service and pass that information along to the community when it becomes available.
The National Weather Service predicts scattered rain throughout the week, accompanied by wind gusts as high as 28 miles per hour. Temperatures this week through next Saturday are forecast to be in the low 40s with highs in the upper 50s. This week’s weather will be monitored by City officials and resources deployed accordingly to fallen trees, flooding, mudslides, power outages, and other storm-related damage.
The City of Mountain View has resources available to assist residents and visitors in this time of need. Those without power seeking a place to charge their electronics and access to Wi-Fi on Sunday, March 19 can visit the following City facilities:
- Mountain View Public Library (585 Franklin St.) – 1 - 5 p.m. (All ages)
- Mountain View Community Center (201 S. Rengstorff Ave.) – 10 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. (All ages)
If you or someone you know needs additional assistance as a result of prolonged loss of power, contact the City’s Emergency Operations Center at 650-903-6103. Needs will be assessed on a case-by-case basis and resources will be provided as they are available.
