Bookmark and Share
About 2,800 PG&E customers in the Bay Area were still without power Friday evening because of storm-related outages, a utility spokesman said.

Power was restored about 10:30 a.m. yesterday to a large part of the Vintage Hills area east of downtown Pleasanton, where it went down about 3:30 a.m.

The affected customers include 1,500 in the North Bay, 400 along the Peninsula, 800 in the East Bay, 50 in the South Bay and 50 in San Francisco, PG&E spokesman Fiona Chan said.

An additional 1,200 customers are without power in the Santa Cruz Mountains as well as just over 1,200 others in Santa Cruz and Monterey counties, Chan said.

The storm had caused outages to nearly 16,000 Bay Area PG&E customers at its peak overnight, according to PG&E.
