[quote:Prospektor:MV8zOTE3MzczXzcwNjc3MDUxXzQ5MTdDRTIx] Unfortunately, sometimes in high winds the cables of those electric lines that are close to the repeater stations touch sending huge sparks down to the ground. Possibly setting off a fire that would be fanned by the winds. I've seen it first hand. Luckily our fire department got there quickly and put it out plus it wasn't as dry as some parts of California is right now. Good luck Cali! [/quote]
Original Message
Officials with Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) are warning residents in several Northern California cities about their plan to pre-emptively shut off power due to extreme fire conditions.
