On Tuesday, PG&E notified about 70,000 customers in parts of Northern California that they may shut off power due to extreme fire danger conditions.

PG&E is now working to notify customers that the shutdown has been cancelled.

It was part of their new PSPS program, or Public Safety Power Shutdown.
