Power is slowly coming back on for thousands of people across the Bay Area, as storms continue to move through.
PG&E told ABC7 News Friday morning that it will have some challenges with restoration in some of the hard hit areas like Santa Cruz County, but says that that work will be made a bit easier now that worst of the storms are behind us.
But it was a challenge for many living in the South Bay.
PG&E reported an outage on San Thomas Aquino Parkway around 7:40 p.m. and at 9:30, people were still without power.
ABC7 News captured video of another outage in Cupertino, where there were reports of downed power lines.
At one point, over 1,000 people were affected.
In downtown San Jose, it was a wet commute.
We found hundreds of families with umbrellas in hands, braving the rain at Christmas In the Park.
From humans to pets, those who were out were dressed for the weather and festivities.
Heading into this round of storms, PG&E said that more than 5,500 field crews were ready to respond to outages.
