State of Emergency California Sparks New Power Outages in Rancho Palos Verdes
State of Emergency California and Power Outages
State of emergency California has resulted in significant power outages in the coastal community of Rancho Palos Verdes. As the land continues to shift under neighborhoods near the ocean cliffs, Southern California Edison announced that an additional 54 homes will lose power starting Monday at 6 p.m.
Current Situation
- About 170 homes are already without power, many indefinitely.
- 140 homes in the Portuguese Bend neighborhood had their power and gas cut off for safety.
During a recent Rancho Palos Verdes City Council meeting, Edison officials indicated they are closely monitoring land movement to determine if further power shutoffs are needed.
Cable and Internet Disruptions
In addition to power interruptions, Cox Communications will disconnect internet and cable services for 146 customers in the Portuguese Bend Community Association, responding to the governor's declaration of state of emergency California.
Residents are urged to follow updates as the situation evolves with the ongoing land movement.
