Day Around the Bay: PG&E To KIll Power for 800,000 Customers, And Their Website Has Crashed
  • PG&E will shut off power for nearly 800,000 customers, starting at midnight tonight. The ‘rolling blackout’ style outages will come in stages, starting in northern California. Customers will supposedly receive notifications via automated calls, texts, or emails. [Bay City News]
  • Meanwhile, PG&E’s online website crashed Tuesday, so customers could not check whether they would be affected by the outages. The utility’s online tool went down due to a “high volume of traffic,” and as of 5 p.m. PDT, it’s still down. [KPIX]
  • A Land’s End drowning victim’s body has been recovered and she’s been identified. The victim was a 24-year-old San Jose woman named Anahi Alejandra. [Chronicle]
  • Stan Lee’s condo at the Four Seasons is on the market for $1.35 million. [Curbed]
  • Botany Reddit lost their minds over a post indicating some rare Botanical Garden plants would be killed, but the garden’s executive director insists that won’t happen. [Hoodline]
  • $15,000 worth of yarn was stolen from a car in Hayes Valley. [SFGate]
