Xcel Energy is planning possible Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) in Boulder and Jefferson counties, Colorado, starting Saturday, March 14, around 2 p.m., due to high winds and critical wildfire danger. Although weather conditions are expected to improve later that day, strong winds are forecast to continue through the weekend, potentially causing further disruptions for customers already affected by earlier outages. Xcel Energy advises customers to prepare for potential outages, especially those relying on medical equipment.
