The Sheriff’s Office of Emergency Services tracked the Santa Ana wind event which impacted Ventura County Sunday-Wednesday which place Fillmore in the red “critical” fire danger category. Northeast winds were predicted to peak Sunday morning and last through mid-week. Forecasts called for sustained winds of 20-30mph with gusts ranging from 40-60mph. Low relative humidity and windy conditions contributed to an increased risk for wildfire. Due to the low relative humidity and high winds, Southern California Edison monitored 26 electrical circuits in Ventura County for potential Public Safety Power Shutoffs. In the event conditions reached dangerous levels that could lead to powerline damage, Southern California Edison was prepared to de-energize electrical circuits until infrastructure could be inspected and safely reenergized.
