作者：María Paula Mijares Torres 太平洋煤气电力公司（PG&E）表示，由于干燥天气和阵风导致野火风险升高，该公司正在向加州北部和中部部分客户切断供电。
By María Paula Mijares Torres Pacific Gas and Electric Co. said it’s shutting off power to some customers in northern and central California after dry weather and gusty winds elevated the risk of wildfires.
该公司最新的公共安全断电（PSPS）预测显示，周日和周一将在17个县和三个部落地区实施预防性停电，包括纳帕县两天均受影响。
The utility’s latest Public Safety Power Shutoff forecast calls for preventive outages in 17 counties and three tribal areas on Sunday and Monday, including Napa County on both days.
PG&E表示，此次断电可能影响12,200名客户。此外，在周日和周一，布特县、科卢萨县、格伦县、沙斯塔县、索拉诺县、特赫马县和约洛县部分地区也将出现断电，湖县仅在周日受影响。
Shutoffs may affect 12,200 customers, PG&E said. Power cuts are also expected in parts of Butte, Colusa, Glenn, Shasta, Solano, Tehama and Yolo counties on both days and in Lake County on Sunday.
根据国家气象局的报告，沙斯塔县、特赫马县和格伦县（包括加州雷丁市）的红旗火灾警报将持续至周一凌晨5点。
Red-flag fire warnings are up across Shasta, Tehama and Glenn counties, including Redding, California, through 5 a.m. Monday, according to the National Weather Service.
这些断电措施将先前的风险转化为积极应对：上周，PG&E曾警告客户注意由于阵风和低湿度导致的野火风险升高。
The shutoffs turn an earlier threat into an active response after PG&E last week warned customers about heightened wildfire risk from gusty winds and low humidity.
