Sonora, CA — High winds in the Mother Lode caused several trees to fall yesterday and numerous power outages in the region. There are still 153 PG&E customers without power this morning in the Pinecrest area and 123 in the vicinity of Calaveras Big Trees State Park. There are smaller outages scattered in Angels Camp, San Andreas, Copperopolis, Sonora, Columbia, Tuolumne and Groveland. PG&E hopes to restore the remaining customers throughout today.
Winds will be a factor again today.
