Bay Area Fire Weather, PG&E Shutoffs and Storm Readiness

PG&E plans preventive power shutoffs from October 15–17 amid dry, windy conditions, reportedly affecting about 11,000 Bay Area customers, while forecasts raise fire-weather and coastal-flooding concerns. Track affected neighborhoods, outage timing and maps, support for medically vulnerable residents, and local El Niño preparedness guidance; recent San Jose readiness coverage is largely duplicative.
