More PG&E customers have been included as part of a Public Safety Power Shutoff. The intentional outages will likely continue through Saturday for most residents due to elevated fire danger from dry and gusty conditions. The utility had said the shutoff may affect as many as 88,000 customers in 29 counties. Currently there are 1,475 customers without electricity in Shasta County, 839 in Tehama County and 3,338 in Butte County. The affected customers were notified prior to the shutoff.
