We often forget how much we depend on electricity. Here are some things you should consider:

• Power outages may disrupt communications, water, and transportation
• May close retail businesses, grocery stores, gas stations, ATMs, and other services
• Can cause food spoilage and water contamination
• Can prevent use of medical devices

How you can protect yourself:

• Review the Be Prepared for Power Outage Factsheet
• For those who may need power to keep running for medical needs, talk to PG&E about Backup Generation

Be ready for floods! 

• Recognize flood risks.
• When power is out or water is in your home, turn off gas, power, and water.
• Unplug any appliances to prevent electrical shock when power comes back on.
• Do NOT drive across flooded roads.
