Approximately 130,000 residents of San Francisco were left without electricity Saturday night due to a power outage caused by a fire at an electrical substation, according to information provided by Pacific Gas & Electric Company. Local authorities urged citizens to stay home, considering that many traffic lights are not functioning and public transport is disrupted. Mayor Daniel Lurie warned the population to avoid non-essential travel and mobilized traffic agents to manage the traffic. The Department of Emergency Management issued recommendations to prevent accidents, including treating intersections without traffic lights as stop intersections and keeping refrigerator doors closed to preserve food. The power outage led to traffic jams and forced some businesses to temporarily close.
