- As of Monday morning, more than 10,000 customers remained without service, concentrated near the Presidio, Richmond, Golden Gate Park, and Civic Center, with PG&E aiming to finish by 2 p.m.
- Waymo paused its robotaxi service after vehicles stalled at dark intersections; the suspension continued as the company coordinated with city officials on safety.
- Traffic signals went dark and transit was disrupted, with BART and Muni services curtailed on Saturday; the city opened charging and resource centers and kept some Civic Center buildings closed Monday.
- Officials reported no injuries; PG&E describes the substation damage as significant and says the fire and outage remain under investigation.
