Fires Spread Amid Power Outages In California

SANTA ROSA, California (AP) – Millions of people in Northern California are on track to have lights come back on, but some may not be restored before another round of strong winds threaten to damage power lines and spark fires.  Electricity is expected to begin being restored by Monday, though Pacific Gas & Electric Co. warned it might cut power again as soon as Tuesday with a forecast of strong winds expected to last until Wednesday.  The utility notified more than 1.2 million people that they may have their electricity shut off for what could be the third time in a week.
