Original Post: The cream city is lacking the juice. LoCO‘s Blackout Bot reports that PG&E is currently investigating why 1,441 customers in Ferndale are currently without power.
This is especially bad for LoCO‘s LCCI sibling radio stations — The Point, KSLG, KXGO and KHUM — who understandably cannot provide Humboldt with tunage, currently. Stay strong, DJs.
Blackout Bot will provide updates below. If you have some clue as to why Ferndale is dark, let us know in the comments below.
