EXETER — OCTOBER 22, 2026, REGIONAL UPDATE. Exeter is in Tulare County, southeast of the Fresno/Selma outage area. Electricity disruptions farther north on October 21 are relevant to travelers, but the statewide network has not independently verified service failures in Exeter.
The primary Sanger News report documents PG&E outage-map information for Wednesday, October 21. One afternoon snapshot identified 14 outage incidents affecting a combined 9,702 customers in the Fresno and near-Selma area, most with a storm-related cause. Separate earlier power interruptions were reported in the Sanger and Clovis areas. These are historical reports; the figures are not a real-time October 22 outage count.
Does this confirm a problem in Exeter?
No. Differences in utilities’ local circuits make even nearby communities’ outage conditions difficult to infer. Fresno-area customer totals should not be counted as Tulare County totals.
What Exeter residents can do
If an Exeter address loses power, report it using that specific service account and check whether the cause is under investigation; storm conditions alone do not identify a utility fault.
Where PG&E is the electric provider, check its official outage center or report an issue by calling 1-800-743-5002. Never approach fallen wires; leave the area and call 911 when there is an immediate hazard.
