Power Restored to Thousands in Albany, Berkeley

ALBANY, CA — Power has been restored for about 3,000 PG&E customers in Albany and Berkeley.

The power went out just after 6:30 p.m. and was fixed about two hours later. The utility did not specify what went wrong.

The outage made the long evening commute even longer as traffic signals were out, including a stretch of San Pablo Avenue.

PG&E crews were busy around the Bay Area as a winter storm pounds the region with heavy rain and wind gusts.
