PG&E Leaves 2,900 SoMa Residents In the Dark

Here's your weekly unscheduled PG&E power outage: roughly 2,900 customers are without power along Folsom, Howard and Clementina Streets tonight. City Supervisor Jane Kim, always looking out for her neighborhood, sent out the news via various social media outlets this evening. The outage reportedly struck around 5:35 p.m. and PG&E hopes to have the lights back on by 7:30 tonight. No word yet on the cause, but in the meantime SoMa's plugged-in technology addicts will have to make do on battery power and 3G connections. Godspeed, folks.
