The local utility PG&E is "probably" going to cut off power as a
precautionary measure, for up to 800,000 customers, as early as
4am Wednesday morning for an unknown length of time. The affected
areas are mostly residential, near the urban/wildland interface,
but this will affect cellphone, cell data and internet as well.

Their servers are already responding slowly or not anymore due to 
a lot more people than expected looking at these pages. There is
much more information available at local news outfits sites.
